    Hi

    Can anyone tell me how to take a set of fixed origin 2D cartesian
    coordinates which I have in Excel and import them to autocad 2006 so
    that they form a polygon?

    Do a search in Google for "import-3d-poly.lsp". Should come up with a
    Cadalyst article reference. I've used this particular lisp program
    before. Read the article to see if it fits your needs. (You might
    have to modify your spreadsheet to include a "Z" coordinate of "0" if
    it doesn't work the first time.) Remember, it skips the first line of
    info because it assumes a header line.

    Have you tried initiating the PolyLine command and then just pasting
    the coordinates into the command line?
