HELP WITH POINTS IN AUTOCAD

[Anonymous]

HI!! Im pretty new in this. I have a question.

I have TWO FILES in .txt, the first have points listed from 1 to 80, and the second one have points listed from 1 to 100...

So i want to do the next stuff:

I add the first FILE1.txt with  80 points without problem, BUT I want to add the second FILE2.txt with points from 1 to 100, but like these:

AUTOCAD SAID THAT I HAVE DUPLICATES NUMBERS, FOR THAT REASON I WANT TO DO WHAT I'VE SHOW ON THE IMAGE!

I mean, like overwritting the first file from the 41point with the second file.. like 1 2 3 4 5 6....40, and instead of 14, continue with the 1 2 3 4 5...100 from the second file, so: 1 2 3 4 5 6 .... 40 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9... 100.

Hope u understand me, thanks!!!

Hi,

>> AUTOCAD SAID THAT I HAVE DUPLICATES NUMBERS

Am I correct when I think you are not working with plain/Vanilla AutoCAD ... instead you are working with Civil 3D?

(because AutoCAD itself does not know anything about point-numbers)

...or are you working with a 3rd party application? If so, which one?

If it is just a txt file then simply open a new text file in notepad or other editor. Highlight the First 40 from the first txt file and paste into new one. Then copy the 1-100 from the next file into the bottom of the new file. If you want or need to have them sequentially numbered. Open the file in Excel. Use the copy with increment method on the first column. Then save back as a txt file and you should be good to go.

Good luck,
