Is it possible to plot a list of Eastings and Northings as circles and how would i go about this.
Also when i am copying something from a dwg and trying to paste to original coordinates in a different drawing the layer is coming up but not the box or lines i am copying.

Any help would be apreciated.

You can do it with a lisp routine. make sure your drawing units are set correctly (decimal and surveyor units). you will also want to change your point style (use "ddptype") to make your points a circle. A basic lsp routine would be like this. (you'll have to add in your points in a text editor like notepad) ::

(defun C:NEE ()
(command "point" "100,100,100" "200,200,200"
)

)

I can only get it to plot the first point, any idea what im doing wrong. I have copied from notepad and tried putting a comma at end of each value as well?

is this because i am using the free version?

I am also using the free version and it worked for me. you will need to put all Northing, Easting, Elev's in "" just like my example showed.
