Sorry for late reply I wrote some function and modified as per your need. load This lisp and type command TEXT2CSV.
then programme asks you for Layer name, Output folder name, and CSV file name. if the input is correct then CSV file create and save on the target location
;
(Defun C:text2CSV (/ extractText FolderBox
makecsvstring lyr layerlist
layerstring
)
;Function-----extractText ---------------------------------------------------------------------
;[filterLIst]--->send selection filter criteria to Function by default nil then select all text
(defun extractText
(filterLIst / outputfile f en i ss name x y z path)
;filterLIst check if filterLIst is nil then select all text from all layer
(if (= nil filterLIst)
(setq filterLIst
'((-4 . "<or") (0 . "TEXT") (0 . "MTEXT") (-4 . "or>"))
)
)
;get file path and file name
;(setq path (FolderBox "Select folder" "D:/" 0))
(setq path (FolderBox "Select Output folder:" "D:/" 0))
(initget 1)
(setq filename (getstring "\nType output CSV filename:"))
(setq outputfile
(strcat path
"/"
filename
".CSV"
)
)
;select entity from dwg and set initial parameter
(setq i -1
ss (ssget "X" filterLIst)
)
;create csv file
(if ss
(progn
(setq f (open outputfile "w"))
(if f
(progn
(write-line (strcat "Name," "X," "Y," "Z,") f)
(while (setq en (ssname ss (setq i (+ 1 i))))
(setq name (makecsvstring (cdr (assoc 1 (entget en)))))
(setq x (rtos (nth 1 (assoc 10 (entget en)))))
(setq y (rtos (nth 2 (assoc 10 (entget en)))))
(setq z (rtos (nth 3 (assoc 10 (entget en)))))
;write to csv
(write-line (strcat name "," X "," Y "," Z) f)
)
(close f)
;done
(Alert "Done!")
)
;if error
(print "\nWrong input unable to create csv file:")
)
)
(print "\nNo text entity found:")
)
(princ)
)
