I have many InDesign CS4 documents (not opposed to a CS5 upgrade if it will help) that have a table containing a parts list. This list is available on my SQL server - I currently export to CSV,then embed an excel sheet. is there a way to have this dynamically pull right from the SQL server? an add-on maybe?

Illustration software is distinguished from photo-editing software in that the result is an original construction, rather than the manipulation of a photograph. Illustration software uses vector-based tools such that the content is stored digitally as resolution-independent mathematical formulae describing lines (open paths), shapes (closed paths), and color fills, strokes or gradients. Vector paths are constructed of anchor points and path segments. Illustration tools typically create precise lines, shapes and patterns with well-defined edges and are superb for working with complex constructions such as maps and typography.
