Any way to have Arena 6 (or others) take cells of text from excel and drop them into text blocks?

example names on screen for awards presentation over background gfx. only thing changing is the names in the text blocks. The text blocks with their tansition times, fonts, size etc would already be in the composition and the only thing being edited from excel would be the text parameter

Can this be run via a script upon the "save" of the excel document so that it doesn't have to feed into resolume every time it is updated with each letter or cell

Not form Excel, but you can set the text in a Text Block via OSC.
sending a string to
/composition/layers/1/clips/4/video/source/blocktextgenerator/text
or
/composition/selectedclip/video/source/blocktextgenerator/text
