Linking a document to an external database

boon_ong575boon_ong575 Member Posts: 5

I need to link one of my documents to an external database. The database has a list of materials and I need to assign a material to a part of the document (e.g. a surface). How can I:

a) link the document to an external database
b) select a surface or a part (item) and access the database to assign the property
c) display the result in a display box on the document toolbar

I can't seem to find any resources on this in the Learning Center.
