Importing excel spreadsheets into User Data

I was wondering if it is/will be possible to import existing excel databases into the user data so known attributes can be attached to the 3D model. I have a lot of information on the model already in this format and would like to avoid having to re-enter it all manually.

Thanks

Michael, I am not sure let me investigate with the programmer. What you are doing with the user data is creating a relational database with a dataset name and then input the data, then attach it. I think it wold be interesting to add the excel to the dataset or at least a link to its location.

I will get back to you on this,

Rick

Hi Rick

Many thanks for this, it would be useful for me to be able to add hyperlinks to the dataset in any case, so if I could do both that would be great!
