I have an Excel file with x,y coordinates. I need to make a sketch
with lines connecting each point. Any idea how to do this without
entering each coordinate manually?

Go to Help for "curves, through XYZ points" and try that. I have not tried
it yet, but it looks like it would do what you want to do.

Curves through XYZ points gives me a spline through the points.
Unfortunately, I need straight line segments. Good suggestion
though.....

Record a macro drawing single click lines. Then put the macro into
excel, grab the xy valuesfrom the spread sheet and put them into the
sketch. Don't forget to convert to metres. |

Philippe Guglielmetti wrote a nice macro to do this called "Sketchfile"
after I made a request on this group (sorry my boss renaged Philippe).
Don't know if I can pass it on now as I understand all Philippes work
may now belong to e-systems. Philippe...........? |
