Hello!

 

I am new to AutoCAD. I want to investigate the oppertunities on automatically generate a list with all components inside a drawing and also pointers to all the components with a numbers. I attach 2 figures describing what I want. Right now I am manually typing and copying everything and it is taking alot of time. 

 

Thanks in advanced

Thanks for the help. 

I managed to make attributes and export my desired strings for each block, and with some code I now have a excel sheet with my data. But I did not manage to figure out how I can make lines with arrows linking a number to my block, as showed in one of my attached figures (in the original post). I tried looking into ATTEXT the X and Y coordinate of each block, but thats about how far I came.

 

Thank you.
