LDT xls not reloaded

I had placed all attributes from the excel file for first time, and runs OK, but when I make a change on the excel file, same file is not loading, I tried making a copy of the file with a "rev" mark and load it again, but doesn't work.

AutoCAD is reading the file because the worksheet name is recognized, but not the rows and columns. 

Do anyone had same problem? How should I solve it?

Is the excel file saved in the project folder or is it somewhere else? Do you still have the problem if you load the excel from a non- OneDrive location?

Hi. Mike. Yes, the file is in the project folder, but AutoCAD can't read it, I try with other excel files and works perfect but not with the project one. I save the file in our network drive, but same results.

I have created a copy of the "Final_ANSI-B" just to prevent to damage on configuration if I made some changes, works ok, till I tried to insert LDT attributes.

Can you test it when you put the LDT file in the Isometric directory or the related files directory and not in the style directory? Does the error persist when you do?

try setting  your "look up" in the header row and column per your mapped attributes.

One tip regarding the excel file - please make sure the file extensions stays the same. It can happen, that modifying for example the LDT.xls file in excel that it gets saved as LDT.xlsx (especially when working on different workstations).

Try using ATTSYNC on your title block.

That command helped me to discover missing and misplaced attributes.
