OLE to Excel from AutoCAD

curious..
There are no excel informations, only a stupid picture (if i am right), so you can only rebuild
this part of table by converter software what try to re-build from raster data 2 excel.
Competion one: Create a pdf in good quality of that table.
A good typist achieves the result faster and in perfect (excel) quality.
(PS: I would send it to India, where tasks are done quickly and cheaply)
Indeed. Pretty awkward.
As for the OLE object: There's a difference between embedded & linked.
If the object is embedded, the objects is completely available within the dwg and can be edited. (separate from its source!)
If it's linked (as is the case here), the objects is only available as "grapical representation" and you need the original document to edit it.
Linked is used for 3 reasons:
1: it saves on the filesize, as the OLE object is not completely loaded into the dwg.
2: it allows for 1 source document to be edited and updates where linked.
3: without the source, the info can not be copied or edited (which prevents third parties from doing so !)
Trying to still export a linked OLE object, is like reverse engineering. (without the owners consent)
So, keeping point 3 in mind, sending it to india as pdf to have somebody recreate the excel...
that's like sending your iPhone to China and have it torn apart and build anew. I'm guessing Apple will not like you very much ... 
The only right way is to ask whomever created it if they could be so kind to share the source file.
Only if there is no source file available & you do have the rights to do so, having somebody recreating it becomes a (finall) option.
