based on this data I would like to create scaled bubbles on the wells, these bubbles will be updated on monthly basis, that is why I think it will be better to keep it as external, to make this process I am facing some problems because I am new on Autocad Map,
to do that I started by importing the wells locations as points from shp file, then I dragged and dropped the Excel file into Data Source folder, then I defined the link template by selecting the table and the key field but when I try to link the objects and the external data by using 'Convert object data to database links' it does not work and it says that 'SQL table is not defined', do you have any idea about this?
Thanks
