Linking door block attributes to door schedule

I work at an architectural firm that designs large scale building so the door schedule is rather large and takes up a lot of time to create. I want to be able to insert a door enter some attrubites and somehow link to my door schedule drawing. I up for any and all suggustions.

 

what is the form of the schedule?



is it blocks with attributes or just lines and text or mtext?



Is the schedule a different dwg file? or a block in this one?



maybe a sample in cf would help with answers

The schedule is a seperate drawing that has titles across the top
like material, glass, undercut, etc., and door numbers across the
left side. It is a templete that I created so it is the same for
all jobs. Right now it is blocks but I'm going to make it an
attributes, I just want to know what I need to do to link the two
seperate drawings. Attached a empty door schedule, and my current
block for a door. One other thing I have created a library and a
drop down menu with different wall thickness... A lot of work but
I LOVE A GOOD CHALLANGE
