I've asked this question before, but I have not received the response I was looking for and I'm hoping that I don't need a fancy macro of API.
I'm simply trying to link a custom property in a drawing to a cell inside an embedded excel table inside of a drawing.
I know a custom property can be easily inserted into a general table, but a general table will not provide the functionality I need. The problem with general tables is that they do not have the functionality of excel, which inlcludes lookup, conditional statements, validation lists, and formatting (controlling the number of decimal places for specific characters) or have the ability to turn off gridlines.
I'm not an API expert, so how is it possible to link SW custom properties, such as dimensions and other custom properties created in the model, to design tables but you can't create a design table within drafting?
How are these links made in excel/API world?
