Inserting blocks at points with different text for each point

Hello,

Now I know this can be done, as I've done it before! But for the life of me I cannot find the solution.

I am wanting to insert a block at a point, with eastings and nothings and an individual number.

For example.

Point 1 -459655,451702

Point 2 -459655,451702

Can I use a script for this, or something else using a .scr or .csv file?

Many thanks,

Mark

In my previous attempt, it was an attribute and a block?

possibly a block with attributes with fields in that reference the X & Y positions. (Actually, MTEXT can also be used for a field.)

I am on half day holiday here so won't have time to look but hopefully that will remind you of where to go.

a few minutes to spare, does this help along the way?

Thank you, that's what I'm looking for! But to atomically insert it at the correct x,y coordinates with a specific text, ideally from excel or a wordpad (.scr or .csv) file.

There is a lsp flie out there called Asciin.lsp or something like that. it reads a txt file and inserts a block/point. I use Map3d or Civil3d to do it.

check this .scr

use Excel to compile the full script [CONCATENATE function]

then you can change atribbutes for the blocks

Make a new script with this command to change atributes for block`s name [from excel] or any attribute. Sintax:

(command "-attedit" "N" "N" "MyBlock" "MyField" "*" "Oldtext" "NewText")

Command: -attedit
