Help Needed with Point File Formats

[Jemauk]

I am in need of some serious help with understanding PFF & UDPs. I looked at all the thread and YouTube videos that I can find and I am still having issues with the importing of the newly added data. I am making structure data labels that show structure type, rim elev, and invert elevations and directions. I have all the labels, expressions and UDPs set correctly and they all work fine (within the drawing I created them in). I have a PFF that exports them correctly to a csv. But when importing the csv into a new drawing, My measure downs (or as I call dips) shift to different spots, I will always get my structure type, and maybe 2 of my directions (which don't always go to the right pipe). Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you!

Can you post the drawing and the point text file?

There is a bug when importing point files with UDP's that started in C3D 2017. There have been a number of posts regarding this, with some showing a bit of success by recreating the UDP's, but this doesn't always work. The latest post about this was within the last few weeks.

Here are the files.

Yes I've seen some of those threads. I see where alot of people have issues with the strings, but those are the ones that come in mostly right for me. And I don't need the strings, they were just a little extra perk. I've tried taking out the strings and only importing the numerical parts but they still came in out of order.
