Is there a way to view the system ID for a specific field?

[Guest]

I am currently linking an Autodesk Architectural 2006 dwg file to an Access
mdb table. When I view the table the order of the fields is as expected,
when we view the table that the drawing sees, the fields in each column are
sorting independently and therefore creating a pretty random set of data -
can anyone help?

This could be a tough problem to figure out. I don't recall any
postings using Autodesk with Access.

1) How do you link from Access to Autodesk? Or do you link from
Autodesk to Access?

2) Does the table have a primary key of some sort?

3) Have you asked in an Autodesk newsgroup or forum of some kind? You
likely will get better support there.
