VBA Data Extraction to Excel-Sheet (DATAEXTRACTION; EATTEXT)

[vjdazam]

Hi,

 

I need to extract Information ("General": Color, etc. and "Geometry": Length, Start Y, End X, etc.") from AutoCAD to an Excel-Sheet using VBA.

 

First I've tried it manually in AutoCAD with the commands DATAEXTRACTION and EATTTEXT and it works.

 

Also I've tried entering in VBA "SendCommand ("DATAEXTRACTION" & vbCr")", then an AutoCAD-window is opened and I have to click on "Next" several times and to specify the folder where I want to save the file. I want that VBA does all this process without the window appearing (I mean "without clicking on "Next" several times and specifying the file path"). Obvious the User has to Input into the code the location where he wants to save the file with the extracted information).

 

Instructions als "For Each Object in ModelSpace: Line.StartPoint, Line.Color, etc." don't help me unfortunately because this way slow down the VBA-program.

 

May anyone help me?

 

Thanks!

 

Regards,
