HOW DO I LINK AUTODCAD 2000i W/ A LOTUS APPLICATION?

[melanni]

I need to find a way to link autocad 2000i w/ lotus (a fairly new version). I would like to have lotus extract information from my drawings w/ as little imput from me as possible. It might be in the form of some kind of database. Any suggestions/solutions or even a point in the right direction would be great.
Thanx

Which Lotus application are you using ?

If it has a programming/macro language that supports ActiveX you should be able to link them fairly easily. I have some experience of doing this with Lotus Notes, which may point you in the right direction.

Let me know in a bit more detail what you are trying to do and I will try to help more.
