Connect point to nearest line

I am using autocad map 2011 and I imported a .shp file of road of a city. I have another file containing several hundred points and I need them to be connected to the nearest road (line), how can I do this automatically for all points.

 

Thanks for the help.

Can be done take 1 pt at a time and compare the perp distance to a line its not complicated theres lots of lisp here to do it need to search "perp to line".

 

I would do in vba .net for speed.

 

It also known as ray tracing sure its not already in MAP check help.
