With the enhanced version of the free LISP utility ASCPOINT - see
Download - you can import CDF/SDF text files into 2D or 3D points, polylines and block references.

The ASCPOINT command reads selected file (comma- or space-delimited, e.g. from Excel, CSV) and inserts points, vertices or blocks on the specified coordinates. The option "Insert" allows to select a predefined block with any number of attributes. The input file can then contain the values of these attributes which will be filled in on import - e.g.:
12.3 4.56 7.8 MyAtt1 MyAtt2
For a single label you can use e.g. the block AttPoint (download and insert the DWG) and an input file in the format:
