How to insert an Excel table into Inventor?

You can use the Table tool (Drawing annotations, or Annotate ribbon) to insert (import) table data in the XLS or CSV formats to a drawing view.

Click the Browse button (icon) and select your .XLS or .CSV table. Inventor loads the external table data to a native drawing table, which can be formatted.

Don't use the Insert Object tool to insert Excel tables.
