    I have an interesting problem.
    I use a lisp to import coordinate files from the survey crew. The lisp
    inputs a block containing attributes for the Point number, Elevation and
    description. I usually have to change all of these points to a 0 elevation
    for drawing purposes.

    Is there a lisp out there that will allow me to change the elevation of the
    point block back to the elevation designated in the elevation attribute. Say
    if the block it at 0 elevation, but the attribute says it is at 503.83
    elevation. I'd like to be able to run a lisp that would place that block
    back at the proper elevation in space.

    maybe there is something out there that can be adapted to use my
    attributes.

    Attributes used are:
    ELEV
    POINT
    DESC.

    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks Terry....
    I allways look in toolpac first. Guess I didn't look deep enough. I probably
    need to memorize the manual!
