What's the best way to get Attribute data from an AutoCAD 2000 drawing to an Access database.
AutoCAD is open on the drawing in question. The attributes are in a title block. I want to click a button in AutoCAD and have the data from the attributes goto an Access database.

Here's a routine that shows how to build a database from scratch using a
selection set of block inserts. To check it out, import the module into a
project, add a reference to DAO 3.6 and run the test routine. It's probably
more than you need but you can just toss out whatever doesn't suit your
needs. Hope it helps.

Before I forget to mention it, make sure your attribute tags only contain
alphanumeric characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9). Access is kind of picky about its
field names and this is the easiest way to avoid problems.
