Use this procedure to 'shake off' the OLE. When you paste pie/bar graphs from Excel into AutoCAD, they can exhibit all the problems of a typical OLE insert, including plot rotation, etc. If the link is not required, you may be able to get more of the data into AutoCAD by using the Paste Special option from the menu and choosing an option like 'AutoCAD Objects'.

When you use the ole link, you lose rows and/or columns. When you look at the clipboard viewer, you should see that the Windows clipboard has limited the data when presented in certain 'flavors'. It will be in the System Tools section of the Windows Setup tab.

If you don't have this program you will need to use the Add/Remove Programs applet of the Windows Control Panel to add it. You will find the clipboard viewer in the accessories or system tools section of the Windows start menu. To see a graphical example of this, select a large range in the spreadsheet, then look at the clipboard viewer. There is a limit, and that limitation is not necessarily AutoCAD's fault. Is there a limit on rows/columns from my OLE spreadsheet? All materials are to be considered 'as-is', and use of any information should be considered as AT YOUR OWN RISK!
