Passing values to an Excel file

[EIA]

This might be too general for a question, but how can you pass a string to a certain cell in an Excel file? Is there any good tutorial out there that you know about Excel and AutoLISP?

Was this posted elsewhere ?

 

Ok first answer you can not use LT2024+ as it does not support the "get application" method. Acad full or Bricscad plus others etc are fine.

 

For LT2025 must use read / write a csv.

 

Happy to provide lots of defuns re Excel to and from but not for LT.

There probably is a post like this since it is quite a generic theme, but I didn't find it.

 

OK, so I can't write to excel on LT, but I can write to a .csv; all I need to do is write values then retrieve them through Excel, a .csv should be enough for that, right?

 

Anyway thanks a lot BIGAL.
