- Click
.
Then import the attribute data as object data. Save and close the file. - Open a drawing and attach the drawing file containing the imported objects.

- As part of the query, define a property alteration that displays the object data as text. When specifying the text, click Expression and choose the object data table that contains the imported attribute data.
