Hello everybody,
I have some troubles to find the way to import points in AutoCAD 3D projects. I have 1400 points in Excel file with columns ID, X, Y, Z,. I would like to display them with 2 labels (ID and Z).
I know there is scripts showed on web but it doesn't work for me.
Herewith my Excel file.
Thank you for your help

Hi @Anonymous
Normally points import fails with number formats: decimal point or comma refer to an dot or comma respectively. Check "Number format" in your Windows, which decimal separator use:

To display points, you can make a block with the necessary attributes, and load your data with the necessary labels using Lee Mac's PointManager, PTM - http://www.lee-mac.com/ptmanager.html.
You can also download using Civil - as written by tcorey.
You can import and Map (/ Civil) 3D - MAPIMPORT.

Yes, Civil 3D uses .dwg, the same as plain AutoCAD.

Instead of the column for Point Number, use Point Name. Point Number does not allow alpha-numeric, but Point Name does.
