There is third-party software that can help you to export coordinates to a text file:

Search google.com for "Innersoft CAD for AutoCAD" and then put the version you are running.  right after "AutoCAD", so if your version is 2007, put that in at the end.  This one is the most popular of all the ones I have researched.

Please have your anti-virus software enabled when downloading files from any website.

Next time, when you write, please include the version of AutoCAD you are running.

Expertise

I can address all 2-D questions and some 3-D questions. I do programming in AutoLISP if it doesn`t involve solid modeling. I can also address menu customization issues and can help you find answers to questions I can`t answer by taking your question directly to Autodesk via their newsgroups.

Experience

I used to do electronic and mechanical design for a flat panel monitor manufacturer, and now I do architectural drafting for an architect. I did and do AutoLISP and menu customization and take pride in making my lisp routines to do the work exactly the way the client likes them done.

Publications
I had a routine published in CADENCE magazine (no longer in publication and taken over by CADALYST). Some of my routines are published on my website at http://my.sterling.net/~bdeshawn
