Chadww Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 Hey all, Im trying to link mtext in an acad drawing to a word document. For example, when I write a legal description based on a drawing, in word, I want the text that I am referencing in the drawing to be linked. In other words, if I change the text in the drawing, it will automatically change the text in the word doc. Thanks. Quote
