To Edit a Linked Drawing From Within the Destination Application

1. Open the document that contains the linked drawing (for example, a Microsoft Word file).
2. Double-click the linked drawing to open it in AutoCAD or AutoCAD-based application.
3. Modify the drawing as necessary.
4. Save and close the drawing.

Note: The drawing is changed in the destination document and all other documents that have links to it.

How the link is updated depends on the destination application. Some applications support automatic updating of links; others require manual updating of links.
