Changing a layout based on a spreadsheet

I'm trying to control an assembly full of different parts with a layout i've created in MS Excel. Currently, we're using a layout to drive the assembly, but pro/e's cumbersome layout limits what I can do as far as programming the layout (short of mile-long if statements). Is there a way to link a spreadsheet to a pro/e layout?

Thanks,
Andy
