C3D-0363 · Export all CogoPoints from the active drawing as PNEZD [C3D-ALLPTS2] done

Writes every CogoPoint (point,northing,easting,elevation,description) comma-delimited, sorted by number, to '<drawing name> - POINTS PNEZD.txt' - in E:\DATA if that folder exists, otherwise beside the drawing. Reads back and echoes the count, first 5 and last 3 rows.
