Answer
Hi--
As you may see from my profile, I am an Interior Designer. AutoCAD is used by many, many disciplines.
I have done a small bit of work with topography and contour maps, but I have never heard of "road points" -- perhaps you are not in the USA, but somewhere using different terms???
I wonder if you are using AutoCAD Civil or Land? -- not plain AutoCAD. They would seem more meant to deal with roads and insert points automatically.
May I please suggest that you have not "learned enough" if you have not studied, or at the least, read a book, on the use of AutoCAD in your particular field.
You will get better help from people in your own field, so may I ask you to go to the Autodesk discussion group that seems to be most like your field, and ask your question there. Be SURE to include more information about your work and mention the country.
