Hello, I am trying to upload these points to civil3d but it keeps telling me 'No point file format match found. These are just a couple of the points. I've worked with points before but for some reason these points are not working for me.

try to create a variation of the point file format NEZ, but change Z column to raw description and make sure it is space delimited too.  C3D point Import is getting messed up because it thinks your 3rd column is an elevation, but there is station or chainage data

Hi Boimah,
Thanks for posting your Point File.
In addition to Mike's excellent advice, Line 51 of your text file has no coordinates, just a description. Import will work, but Civil 3D pops up an error in the Event Viewer just to let you know.
