    Default Watch out for this table link Headache

    Hello everyone I am posting a linked table problem I solved. I had created a cvs excel table in another program. I opened it in excel did some changes and saved it. The table was a simple table with just 6 columns and 25 rows. As soon as I imported to Autocad the table took to long to load and it opened including all the empty columns to the right AY. The table was difficult to format and it also took a long time to do it. I solved this by opening the excel file copying the data to a new workbook and saved it as the old file. It looks like the table done in the other program had some extra information autocad did not handle correctly. After this it imported fine to Autocad.
