How do you want to do this? Do you plan on using VBA to get data from Access or do you want to insert it as you would an Excel table? DimensionalSolutions@Core.com

I do not think I want to insert this information. I am not familiar with VBA. I want to be able to create a point in AutoCAD and somehow link the point to the information already created in Access. I hope this is clearer than mud.
Thank-you

If you want to create a link to an Access file, you can use a hyperlink. For example:
1. Insert some text "Link to Database"
2. Insert > Hyperlink
3. Select the text object from (1)
4. Browse for the Access file and hit OK
Then, this text will be a link directly to the Access file.
Is that what you were looking for?
