Hi, I've been reading through and trying to follow some of the old threads on this site utilising the GSD_PointSplineLoftFromExcel.xls file to import my points. The macro seems to run (points only) but when the geometry from excel geometrical set appears in catia none of my coordinates are present. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I've included the excel file that I have replaced with my coordinates.

Thanks

James
 
Hi
you need 3 informations for define a point
X, Y, and Z
for exemple
StartLoft
StartCurve
100 0 0
99 0,2969 0
98 0,53335 0
97 0,76868 0
.....
100 0 0
EndCurve
EndLoft
End
 
Ok so it's just because I didn't enter a y coordinate. I used a macro created by someone else that worked now anyway but that's good to know. Thanks
