within script: import lines as points

I'm importing lines in ASCII TXT and want to treat all data as points. My script works, but stops at each file to pop up the "Generic ASCII Text File Import Options" Menu. If I select "Point only" it works fine - but is there a way to specify this in the script so I don't get a popup menu for each file?

Thanks in advance

    Cody,

    You can use the IMPORT_ASCII command and specify the import parameters in the script so that you won't be prompted.

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Thanks,

    Darn it. I hate to ask questions that are easily answered by reading the documentation! Sorry - Somehow I overlooked "IMPORT_ASCII" and I was just using "IMPORT".

    THis worked great - thanks
