[quote user="shridatta kulkarni"]

Hi Microstation Users,

I am trying to write a VBA Macro which helps us to get the data from excel sheet and
place it in title block of microstation drawing and the macro runs till the end of row
and once it finds the empty row macro will stop. Whatever the data it is getting from
excel and automatically placing it on top view of the drawing. But I want to place it in
Isometric view initially or after placing the text I want to rotate it to Isometric view since all
my macro works on Microstation based OpenPlant Isometric Manager.

As I am very new to Microstation product,  able to place text but couldn't
able to change the view. Kindly help me on the same if somebody know about macros of microstation.

Thanks and Regards

I think what you need to do is use a different  work flow, use TAGs instead of plain text,  to put the  text into your title blocks  and then use  VBA  programming to import / export text data to and from tag sets, to and  from excel...from loads of dgns or single selected dgn..

Now you dont need to develop and write the  vba yourself  ( a lot of lost time and money in poorly developing things that are already available off the shelf )  there are plenty of  custom ones around over a large range of  prices and  come with additional tools...

I would recommend the  following

Caddpro Tag / Title sheet tools by Adam Lambert  you can see demo of this on Youtube ( search tags microstation Cadd pro excellent  product)

or

Flexitablefrom La Solutions ( Jon Summers,  he posted here already bunt didn't spruke his  excellent  product, so I did it for him)..

there are many others but they  tend to be very expensive by  comparison with the above two and have  limited extra features. 

The above suggestions both also come with loads of other features too.. but you need to do research on their  respective websites...
