    Hi i want to create a Block (Its represent a Point with a line and text) I
    would like to modify this text.
    The Idea:
    I have a list this look like
    101-456.345-23.456
    102-345.435-45.356
    ....

    I would like to put a point with the number of this point written at the top

    i think block are the method but iam not sure.

    i am a beginner in autocad.

    Thx
    Sylvain.

    If you want to automate this task, it is not a job for a beginner, unless
    you are lucky enough to find a lisp routine that does exactly this.

    I should have added that if you want to do this manually, make a block with
    one 'attribute' and type in the info at each insertion.

    Sorry, I know nothing of any BASIC after 1977.

    I have a couple of LISP routines on my site that do parts of what you want.
    BESQ inserts blocks with a single attribute and sequentially increments the
    attribute value. HOWHI puts the Y value of a point into a leader. Between
    the two of them, you might get a notion of how you can approach it.
