draw rectangles through table data

[ing.samu]

gent.mi of the forum...
My name is samuele and I am a young electrical engineer. . .
for the company where I work I should make macros connected to a table.. .
I understand better: macros know what are theoretical online and I think I find guides on the internet.. .
while for the second part I would like to in place to interactively type the measures find
a faster method... I would like to make sure macros connected to an electronic sheet
where to fish the data...
I don't know if I was clear, write to me. I have no idea how to achieve it. . .


Thank you for the kind answer.. .

a presentation in the section:

I introduced myself. . .

in practice having an object, for example a rectangle,
I would like to create new rectangles as many as are listed in
A table... all with the measures specified in the same table.

I hope to have expressed myself better than last time.. .

Thank you.

If you want something "interactive", in the sense you add data in excel and automatically autocad draws you entities, then you could only do it via .net or vba.
if you already have data, but you don't care about this "interactivity", then you can use scripts.

I guess the explanation is complicated and long...
But what are net, vba?
are there guides, manuals, etc...?

orient me a little...:finger:

If you don't even know what I am is much longer and complicated than you think. .net is the microsoft framework with which recent windows applications are built. vba stands for visual basic for applications, where visual basic is a programming language. There are a lot of manuals, but before you can build what you're looking for, you should practice language (vb or c#), so it might take months...

Here I am. .
Sorry I'm late. ;-)

I stopped at the university. . .
Anyway, it's too laborious. . .
I found something that does to my case on the web, modifying it ad oc, of course. . .
with excel and some scripts I have already started to come up with something with autocad:
