I have a site survey with 3D points marking the levels under a layer called T-Points, however when I import it into Revit & try to use the cad file to create topo from instance & use this layer it will not recognise the points. Can someone explain why as I am pretty sure I've used this before & it's picked up the points? (Revit '013)

Thanks Typhoon, I would never have found that! Now I run the lsp routine & it gives me a points file that I then can use via the 'create from points file route' that is great - although I think i went wrong setting up the site project initially as now it's all over the place - luckily I have only put the topography in so can now do it properly with the correct points. I wish there was a plain English language instruction manual to tell you how to set up the site project in easy stages, the Help files are confusing to say the least!
