help with script 2008 c3d vista lines by point number

[wadehammond]

I want to draw lines by point number using a script
can someone tell me why this wont work?

_line
'pn
288-296
;DRIP LINE
299-310
;DRIPLINE
311-316
;EP SHARP
329-334

works fine when keyed in but the script always has a problem
as if autocad cant keep up with the instructions

I was hoping someone else had tried this and found a solution.
this script wont run, It appears that the script commands come in too fast for autocad to process
I worked around it by using cut and paste with distant point number between each range of points (200-212,2500,216-224,2500,240-266....)

then erasing these long lines then using flatten and a lisp routine to make a polyline out of them

I've attached a .csv file and the script file if anyone would like to
help.

Was this thread edited? I could have sworn that I had a reply to this.
Anyway, try putting a 'pn before any point group. For some reason, it goes back to the regular _line command while running a script. You can check this if you have the command line open, and check to see what the program does. You'll be able to see where in the script you are by reading the inputs.

Maybe if you reissued the _line command before starting your new set?
