Hi,
I have a drawing in which bill of material is placed as a excel sheet. It is our normal practice by prepare the BOM in separate file and copy & paste in Catia drawing. Today, in one drawing, that sheet was inserted previously as an OLE linked file by mistake and during checked into smart team, that excel file was not saved. So, now, when I opened the drawing, I unable to open that table. When I went to edit, links, OLE links, it shows file is missing. So, if it is possible to convert the link lost excel file into embedded file so that we can retain the details and able to edit. When I checked in inter net, it is mentioned that it is possible in Microsoft programs. Kindly give any idea if it is possible in CATIA drawing.
