eea123 Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 I looked at your sample data set and don't see how that easily imports into CAD. Take a look at some of the available utilities and see if you couldn't manipulate the Excel source data into a format that can be imported and drafted with reduced effort. Jeffery Sanders http://www.jefferypsanders.com/autolisp_XL.html comes to mind. Quote
eea123 Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 Another consideration on connecting linework. I have used some commercial products in the past for connecting linework from survey points using linecodes. I have found that if you are able to import the data sorting the descriptor onto layers, then you can just turn layers on and off that you want to connect the linework using the line commend with Osnap by node very fast!

BIGAL Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 Your data and dwg really dont explain what you want is it the hatching that your trying to produce on a std dwg template ? You could just use excel to create a column that defines the hatch area as a simple pline command then hatch it and you just copy that column onto the autocad command line. Just type -hatch and follow the prompts write down all the steps that what you need for excel. eg column L = -hatch la Concrete B 100,150 200,150 ansi31 Check here by searching for excel "Concatenate" examples.

BIGAL Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 To draw a line from a column of input in excel this is the simplest way! Just copy column G to the command line. Using a lisp requires a knowledge of lisp to customise for your use. You have to edit the lisp to say which cells are to be used. Anyway if you want to have a go google GETEXCEL.LSP Quote
