Export polyline coordinates as a text

Does anyone know if you can export the endpoint coordinates of a polyline (I inserted an autocad drawing into the LS ), as a text file.

The reason is to create a cogo file, from the inserted autocad drawing into the LS.

Trying to figure out a way to take a drawing that we have created in Autocad, it is on geodetic coordinates.

It has lines drawn that we are using for stake out points.

Sorry if this seems like a stupid question, we are rough staking buildings, and I wanted to use the coordinate information (from the poly lines in the drawing, that was loaded into the LS) to load into a different data collector

Scott,
Please use Files > Data Exchange > Export, select Format - Text/CSV, and select what you wish to export via Export Range button. There is currently no possibility to select only line endpoints, but you can filter them by some other criteria (page, code, etc). You can either describe what you have in the project, or post here the project archive so that we can give further advice. Also we'll add to the todo list an option to select only line endpoints.

The simplest way that I see to do this is to import the .dwg file into a page without any other contents. Then use the What to Export>By Page option to export the points on that page.
