Drivind a part or an assy with Excel

Hello all

We are making professional cooking appliances. Usually, we build separate units that are mounted side by side (400 to 800mm).

In a few months, we will be selling custom built tops (up to 2800mm). They will be made with one solid top, the appliances mounted in cuts made on the top.

I am setting up an excel sheet describing the top (kind of appliance, number, position on the top.), and I want that this sheet drives directly the cuts on the top.

If all goes well, I could also build an assy of the cooking top from the same sheet.

I wonder if anyone has examples of such a project, or a how-to.

TIA

JM

I know how to do it (link external excel sheet and the design table), and I am moving into the project at a nice path. The 'external driving' being just a small part of the job.

I just thought I could take profit of some example, but at this time I have passed this point.

Thanks a lot for your answer, and your attention.
