    I have tried the lisps were offered for similar posts, but none are quite what I was looking for. Anyone know of a way to take mtext (or dtext) and explode into individual words? What I have done is create a .txt file from some blocks, imported into mtext, and now I need to line these values up within my schedule (door). I have not been successful with linked ole object thru excel (mainly because I don't know how to use excel).
    Thanks in advance!

    Set the width of the MTEXT paragraph to a small fraction prior to exploding.
