Default Visio 2d Shapes from Excel Data(height & length)

Hello,


I am trying to generate shapes/stencils from data from an excel file but can seem to figure it out. I have an equipment list excel file that contains dimensions of hundreds of different pieces of equipment. The data in the excel file consist of: type of equipment, length, width, height, weights. Is it possible for visio to generate 2d shapes based on the length and width data as well as display the following inside the shape:
Type of equipment
Dimensions
Weight

Pulling the data from an excel file would save me several hours rather than manually creating each shape.

Many thanks!
