Is there a way of extracting attribute data from a common block in multiple files and output this to a CSV(or similar)?
I have been "assigned" to cross check a client's drawing register. To reduce the RSI in my mind, I would like to be able to extract the attributes from the title-block and filename from all of his drawing, into one CSV. Then import the resulting CSV into excel and start my comparison from there. |

I was under the impression that it would generate multiple files (although I never tried it).
I've currently digging around on the net to see what other options I may have.

Below is a script from Bill's FAQ's... http://www.74mph.com/faq/FAQ00145.html
I think you need AutoCAD 2004 or higher to use this though.
;BEGIN SCRIPT
;Command: -EATTEXT
-EATTEXT
;Enter the extraction type, [Objects/Currentdwg/Selectdwg] :C

;Extract data from external reference drawing? [Yes/No] :N

;Enter Template file path:
;Enter the output filetype[Csv/Txt/Xls/Mdb] :CSV

;Enter output filepath:
