I want to create a Block with Text

Hi i want to create a Block (Its represent a Point with a line and text) I
would like to modify this text.
The Idea:
I have a list this look like
101-456.345-23.456
102-345.435-45.356
...
I would like to put a point with the number of this point written at the top
i think block are the method but iam not sure.
i am a beginner in autocad.
Thx
Sylvain.

If you want to automate this task, it is not a job for a beginner, unless you are lucky enough to find a lisp routine that does exactly this.

I should have added that if you want to do this manually, make a block with one 'attribute' and type in the info at each insertion.

Sorry, I know nothing of any BASIC after 1977.
I have a couple of LISP routines on my site that do parts of what you want. BESQ inserts blocks with a single attribute and sequentially increments the attribute value. HOWHI puts the Y value of a point into a leader. Between the two of them, you might get a notion of how you can approach it.
