Hi there!
Hopefully someone can help on this one. I'm relatively new to AutCAD map 3d but I've used arcGIS a while back.
I have existing roads, towns etc data that are already set to UTM 17. I want to import ascii point coordinates (from a comma delimited file) into the file. I can import the ascii coordinates as points fine (easting and northing), however the points come in as the absolute coordinates rather than geometric coordinates. I already set the files for right geographic projections. Beyond manually inputing the coordinates into the coordinate tracker, is there a way to import the coordinates form the file set for the geometric coordinates?
Thanks in advance!!

Have you assigned the coordinate system to your dwg and the text file you are importing into?
Yup. I've assigned the same coordinate system to both the drawing and when I import the ascii coordinates into the survey data store.
