Look at Help, search for PTS and IBL (?). Those are the file extensions used for creating text format point, curve, surface files. There should be enough there to get you going.

I have used something that may be useful to you. Create a text file in notebook and rename it to .ibl The coords must be in the format x y z per line single space between without designators. Then datum points/offset coord sys without dims cartesion and read in the ibl file. worked fine.

There was a small problem with this and that was the file size was limited to about 1.5Mb. Probably due to a limit of the array that proe can handle.
