GENERATION OF INSTRUMENT LOOP DIAGRAM USING EXCEL MACRO'S

[sarsivi30993]

Dear all,

I am working on a project where I need to generate loop diagram for instruments.  But in my case the number of instruments is more than 1000.  The advantage here is, the template for typical type of instruments are the same and its about matter of few data's to be changed (Eg. Tag number, cable number, Junction box number).  I am core engineer and into coding. 

With few data's on each template to be change, is there a way I can do that using MACRO's excel or LISP ?

I believe this is possible but someone help me in macro's coding.  I am looking to use AutoCAD to the fullest.

Anticipating your response. 

Thanks in advance.

Cheers

If you have a new subscription to the Only One AutoCAD you may already have access to this tool set.

If you are stuck on creating it, the way you tackle the problem should be based on your coding strengths. I've developed a lot of stuff for file handling in excel so for me i would start there (mostly cause i would be cutting and pasting my own code sets) and dynamically create a script (.scr) that i would call with coreconsole with each step through an excel file.
