Get Coords from AcadPoint and pass to array

Working in VBA for AutoCAD 2016 and I cant seem to figure out how to extract coordinates from a point in an open, active drawing. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

Dont have much time but are you talking about a "Autocad POINT"

Secondly can you use lisp instead as VBA is gradually being dropped.

A sample for getting a selection set

DDim objENT As AcadEntity
Dim ssetObj As AcadSelectionSet
Set ssetObj = ThisDrawing.SelectionSets.Add("MYSS6")
ssetObj.Select acSelectionSetAll
For Each objENT In ssetObj
objENT.color = acByLayer
objENT.Linetype = "ByLayer"
Next objENT

a couple more maybe been a while in VBA

Dim pt1(0 To 2) As Double
pt1=ThisDrawing.Utility.Getpoint
'pt1(0) is X pt1(1) is Y 
If objENT.Name = "acpoint" Then

pt1=ThisDrawing.Utility.Getpoint

That's close. It gives me a few more ideas. The line above wont pass into the array.

The "ssetObj.Select acSelectionSetAll" was one of the things that i was looking for.

Thank you

I need to pass this into a collection but here it is:

Dim objENT As AcadPoint
Dim ssetObj As AcadSelectionSet
Set ssetObj = ThisDrawing.SelectionSets.Add("MySS25")
Dim pt1(0 To 2) As Variant

ssetObj.Select acSelectionSetAll

   For Each objENT In ssetObj
       If objENT.ObjectName = "AcDbPoint" Then
           pt1(0) = objENT.Coordinates(0)
           pt1(1) = objENT.Coordinates(1)
           pt1(2) = objENT.Coordinates(2)
           'Debug.Print objENT.Coordinates(0)
           'Debug.Print objENT.Coordinates(1)
           'Debug.Print objENT.Coordinates(2)
       End If
   Next objENT

How often to people answer their own posts?

Me personally I would use X Y Z, pt1(1) means ? or HOR VER LEVEL

should have posted this just search for a POINT example is for block

Dim FilterDXFCode(0) As Integer
Dim FilterDXFVal(0) As Variant
FilterDXFCode(0) = 0
FilterDXFVal(0) = "INSERT"
'FilterDXFCode(1) = 2
'FilterDXFVal(1) = "SCHEDTEXT"
Set SS = ThisDrawing.SelectionSets.Add("pit1sel")
SS.Select acSelectionSetAll, , , FilterDXFCode, FilterDXFVal

Well I need the coordinates, not the point itself. Basically I will be getting point data from a survey as a .dxf and I will be generating polylines between the points to show elevation and span of a crane rail. I wont know how many data points i will receive so I have to iterate between each one. I have a ways to go but you gave me the couple of hints I needed to get through that first hurdle.

Thanks again!!
