Hi,

I have an AutoCAD drawing with two profiles (2D lines+splines)

I need a coordinate table so I can recreate the profile in an excel graph.

Can someone help me with a simple lisp routine that does the following:

Divide the profile in 100 sections and give the x and y coordinate of each section, with 0,0 being the begin point of the profile.

the profiles are between 5 meter and 300 meter long, and are saved in pairs in AutoCAD. I can put each profile in a separate file if that makes things easier.

I have to convert a whole bunch of profiles, therefore i really want something to automate the creation of the tables (.txt file?) for use in excel.

Thx.
