I have written a lisp routine that places a donut and a number (the numbers increase sequentially with increased point selections) at a user selected point. It then creates a table with the point number, easting, northing and level of the selected point (Pt. No. X Y Z).

The point number placed at the selected point has a text box around it.

Is this the sort of thing you are after ?

Yell if you want a copy.......

[ebulfin]

does it make one table or a bunch of small ones all over the page?

[Alan Cullen]

That's a user choice, it will either add to a previous table or start a new one. You select the start point for for any new table.

You also choose the start number for the sequential point numbers. The routine also allows you to place the point number (and associated text box) at any location you want.

Alan Cullen, I'd also liked to see your lisp. Could you post for me also or publish it in this forum?

If uou put your leaders in first and just use the letter A as the text. Then use TCIRCLE to put circles around them, then use TCOUNT it will put numbers in the circles (use the overwrite option) instead of the letter A.

EDIT: oops forgot to say. The TCOUNT replaces the text values so select them and not the circles. Also it increments in the order of selection.
