Autodesk Revit MEP Wishes

We really need to link in spread sheets

[#2]

Beside spreadsheets, we also need to link formatted documents (i.e. specs). The text tool in Revit is too primitive, no automatic numbering for paragraph, no indentation.

[#3]

does anyone know if you can link revit to an access database?

[#4]

In addition a two - way link at that

[#5]

Indeed, this would be a great thing. It needs to be better than OLE however, because of OLE's built in size limitations.

At our company we'd use OLE a lot more with Autocad if it could do larger spreadsheets & schedules... so it would be nice to have something without those issues.

Limitations of OLE went away with 2003 Excel and (I think) 2005 CAD. We have linked spreadsheets as large as a 24x36 sheet of paper.
