are you looking for a script?
point
1,3,2.5
2,5,9
...etc
Check PDMODE and PDSIZE

the points are inside the *.dwg and now you want a text at every point with the values of the x/y/z axis.
Which lisp did you download?

This thread points to a freeware download useful to write an ACAD script file from MS Excel
I've configured the routines in Excel to write a script that will write each point (using PDSIZE and PDMODE), Point ID Text, Point Level Text (each point is coordinated as 3D) and a sequential 3D polyline through the points (to help identify location). Other routines allow blocks to be inserted at a designated location and rotation from Excel.
I used this for about a couple of years now and proved very useful. Good luck...
