https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/vba-forum/com-objects/m-p/2086674#M23005 Hi,<BR /> <BR /> I am working on a macro that extracts data from an excel table and then uses it to create a drawing in autocad. I am doing it using a txt file for data exchange between the programs. I wanted to know if AutoCAD supports COM Objects so that i could load excel and autocad classes in visual studio and create a single application that does it all instead of having one macro for transforming an excel table to txt and then another one for reading de txt and making a drawing.<BR /> If anyone knows I would appreciate it.<BR /> thanks Mon, 08 Oct 2007 19:03:22 GMT Anonymous 2007-10-08T19:03:22Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/vba-forum/com-objects/m-p/2086674#M23005 Hi,<BR /> <BR /> I am working on a macro that extracts data from an excel table and then uses it to create a drawing in autocad.
