How to export AutoCAD drawing texts to Excel?

You can use the DATAEXTRACTION command to export contents of selected texts to XLS. Much simpler method is the Txt2XLS utility downloadable from www.cadstudio.cz/download.

Just AppLoad the VLX file and start the TXT2XLS command. All selected text are directly copied to a table in an Excel sheet. It will either launch Excel and create a new table, or insert the texts to the currently opened Excel sheet (starting in the select cell).
