Export Coordinates from 2D Polylines

Dear Sir,
I got a 2D polyline drawing, which was made by more than thousands of nodes, and I want to know all the coordinates of the nodes on that polyline. Except using a mouse to locate each of them, do you know another good way to make it faster? Thanks.

Man, I just gotta know what kind of work you are doing to need a pline made with many thousands of nodes. I have made some long and complicated ones, myself, but this is collosal.

Please, do tell us about it.

If you LIST the pline and press F2, you can right click in the text window and copy the contents to another application such as excel or word for a printout or manipulation.......

Got any pointers to give? Reading a DXF file is not easy for the un-initiated. -- Dean Saadallah Add-on products for LT http://www.pendean.com/lt --

LIST command, read every node point it returns. You can copy/paste to something outside LT that can manage it if you need it. The list starts from your Pline 'start' point and remains in sequence right to the end. -- Dean Saadallah Add-on products for LT http://www.pendean.com/lt --
