Does anyone know how I can extract an Excell spreadsheet and import the information into an ACAD Schedule in acad2002 format? I have imported it as an image, but this image will not plot correctly. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Excel Spreadsheets in AutoCAD 2002
Does anyone know how I can extract an Excell spreadsheet and import the information into an ACAD Schedule in acad2002 format? I have imported it as an image, but this image will not plot correctly. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Hi
Have a browse of the following threads (especially take notice of any links provided within) -
OLE
pasted items not plotting
+
Check out the following Technical Document on the Autodesk web site under the Knowledge Base section -
ID: TS33804 - Improve plot quality of OLE objects
ID: TS17736 - Pasting OLE objects as AutoCAD® objects
+
Further searching within the Forums "Search Forums" & the "AutoCAD Knowledge Base" should turn up a lot more information on this subject.
Have a good one, Mike

When you paste as AutoCAD entities the lines do not come in correctly from the spreadsheet. They're a *little* off. Just get the text, not the graphics.
I realize that you're probably not getting graphics because you're putting the info into a schedule, but I just thought I'd mention this for future viewers' reference.
