Extracting Xdata

[Anonymous]

I am new to this whole xdata thing I would appreciate some assitance.

I have xdata information attached to blocks in my drawings that i would like to extract to a txt file by selecting it.

So for example user would press button or type command and then select blocks to get data from and then hit enter and the data would then be extracted to a txt file.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Are you new to just the 'xdata thing', or are you
new

to .NET and AutoCAD .NET programming in general?

Need to know that in order to give you a useful
answer.

I am new to .NET as well. I do understand the concept of the Xdata mostly....I have read about as much as i could find on the interenet about it. Not too much out there programming wise.

Every entity has an XData which is where you get

the XData from.

From there, it's really up to you, in so far as what
to

do with it. If you're familar with writing files,
there

should not be too much of problem.
