Quantity Link Help

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I am using quantity link to get length takeoffs from my PDF directly to excel. I can link a cell to a certain measurement type (length, area, etc.) but can't separate it out from there.

Attached picture might make this make sense. I want the 'Length 1' measurement to go to cell B2 and the 'Length 2' measurement to go to B3. Is this possible?

What are the Subject labels on your measurements?

QL work by Subject , so you'll have to set it up that way.

Do yourself a HUGE favour though, learn Power Query. Much more dynamic than QL.
