I am trying to use the command "Insert / OLE Object / Microsoft Excel Sheet", and after filling some cells with data, and closing the file, I can see the filled data inside Autocad drawing. BUT, if I open the sheet again through (Right Click after oject selection) "OLE/OPEN", and if I add more data lines to the excel sheet then close it to return to Autocad, I CANNOT see the new added lines of data in the excel sheet shown in Autocad.
I need some command to update the OLE so that I can see all data in it, or maybe decide a part of the worksheet that I want to display in Autocad. I need help in that.

the only way I know of is to OLE open the object, make it larger or smaller, copy the new cells, paste into your drawing and delete the older OLE object.
