Good morning to everyone.
rather newbie here, and just starting to work with LISP routines. s(h)aves me a lot of time.
Now the situation is this:
I get a lot of objects from the surveying team, which have to be put into the drawing.
No problem here, I've got an excel list of the object name and coordinates to match, so I insert an attributed block into the drawing based upon the coordinates from the excel sheet.
I've got all these objects within the drawing, and now the status of these objects is changing.
status is let's say 1, 2 or 3 ( these statusses have a different layer ) I can remake an excel sheet everytime a couple of hundred of these objects shift status, and delete the old objects, just to put in the same objects, but on a different layer.
But I reckon it shouldn't be impossible, to select the objects based upon their attributed value ( just numbers 1 to 5000 or so )and move the selection to a different status layer.
Does anyone know of a routine to select attributed blocks within a drawing based upon their attributed value, which is mentioned in an excel sheet?
I've already tried FIND command, and searched the net for LISP-routines

As you might be able to see, I'm working BricsCAD
