Entering data using coordinates.

[O Snap!]

Using ACAD 2004 right now.

I've got a gajillion items that I need to enter into my drawing using coordinates (X,Y format).

Is there a way to substitute one of the symbols off the 10-key pad for the comma?

Instead of entering my "X coordinate, comma, Y coordinate", I would like to do this without my right hand having to leave the 10-key pad to reach for the comma.


Thanks.

If you have a lot of items, and have the coordinates in a text file or spreadsheet ,you should not waste time re-entering them. A script would speed this up considerably and remove errors. At the least you could copy and paste data into the command line. If these are a gajillion hand written coordinates, never mind, but someone erred to arrive in that fix.

yes if you have these in textfile or spreadsheet then a lisp or vba macro would do this quickly.
