    Hi everibody, I'm an Autocad newbie and I've to realize many identical
    sheets with some different text labels (i.e. sheets that differ only for
    some labels). In each sheet, some parametric blocks are included. Inside
    theese blocks are located the labels that I'd like to set automatically
    reading their values from a DB or (better) an Excel sheet.
    I'd like to automate also the saving procedure providing the names of
    the files as record values.
    I think that this should be a "classic issue" (the one to have to
    produce many similar sheets starting from a tipical one) but my
    familiarity with both autocad and vba is quite low, so I need to be
    driven on the right path. Every advice or link is wellcome.

    Thank in advance and please excuse me for my english and if my post
    could result Out of Topic.

    Trini.

    HiHo;
    I remember reading a solution in cadalyst some time back.
    Search the "get the code" at www.cadalyst.com for
    writing excel data to autocad blocks.
