 Topic: self populating spreadsheetPosted: 29.Jun.2017 at 19:09 |

Hey everyone! Here's the deal, I've been looking for a forum for some autocad applications just a little beyond the beginner stuff. What I'm trying to accomplish is the creation of a spreadsheet that fills itself out as I draw. My drawings are of PV systems (solar panels) and I would like to know how to have a cell contain the number of polylines drawn on a specific layer. Can anyone help me here?
As a follow up question, is there an authoritative place I can go to research and find the answers to questions like this on my own? Thanks!

There may be no existing application for this specific task but it can be done - see e.g. the Click2XLS utility in the Download area for populating a spreadsheet with clicked coordinates or texts. You may also use DATAEXTRACTION and an associative table with results of this extraction embedded in the drawing. See: http://www.cadforum.cz/cadforum_en/associative-dwg-table-of-line-length-totals-by-layer-tip8677 http://www.cadforum.cz/cadforum_en/how-to-invoke-updates-of-the-data-extraction-table-tip8679
