IMPORT COORDINATES AND TEXT USING THE XYZ TOOL

Hi

Using Microstation connect U5.

If i create a .txt file with many ( a few thousen ) x,y,z coordinates, and every coordinate should have a different text ( a combination of numbers and letters ( Something like this; 1:Coordinate; x100 y200 z150 text= 1bar. 2:Coordinate; x300 y200 z250 text= 12bar etc...  ) Would that be possible to import in to Microstation, maybe using the XYZ tool? If so how would i set this up to make it work?

Not very well explained, but i simply want to import data from another software ( CFD simulations ). In excel i have all XYZ the coordinates and i have the text for each XYZ coordinate. Im just not sure if there is a way to get this in to microstation without programming?

Regards

Helge
