Object Data Table Export

I have built a simple Object Data table and wish to export it an most any form, but preferable just a plain old csv.  How, if possible, is the best way to access the Object Data table?

 

Thank you!

@townest ,

 

Can you post a sample dwg please? and provide more details? That will help us look for a solution with you.

@CodeDing To my knowledge there is only one Object Data Table in ACAD that I know of anyway... see https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-map-3d/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2019/EN....

These object data tables are funny animals.  AutoCAD only ever shows what MS Access would call the 'Design View' or ArcGIS would call 'Field View' where the fields are shown but not the data.  The actual data table is latent as near as I can tell.   The closest you get to seeing real data is in the properties dialogue box one object at a time.  Hopefully there's a cool way to get the Object Data Table for all or selected objects out of the dwg.

Cheers,

Tyler

Hello @townest 

 

For me, you are into the "wrong" forum !

 

-------- AutoCAD MAP Forum --------

---- Additions for Object Data ----

Into this topic (please see above) there are the most important available Routines for ACAD MAP / ACAD CIVIL related to Object Data !

 

Most of them come from a Super ACAD Map French Developper Bruno (Pseudo : @CAdaSchtroumpf) !

 

Please see the attached Lisp File ... The Routine OD&PROP2CSV is THAT you need ! ... and much more ...

 

If you have problem with French , please let me know, I will translate it !

 

I have added an other beautiful Routine from Bruno : ROD

You must use it on objects with ODs attached ... Please fly over these objects ... And appreciate ROD !
