Hi Dingle,

This is what you need to use - Rhino.TextDotPoint

Here is a script that show it in action:

Option Explicit
'Script written by <insert name>
'Script copyrighted by <insert company name>
'Script version Friday, March 21, 2008 6:10:20 PM

Call DotText()
Sub DotText()
        Dim strObjects, text2Make, dotPt, y
        strObjects = Rhino.GetObjects("Select text dots")
        For y=0 To Ubound(strObjects)
                If Rhino.IsTextDot(strObjects(y)) Then

                        text2Make = Rhino.TextDotText (strObjects(y))
                        dotPt = Rhino.TextDotPoint (strObjects(y))
                        Rhino.AddText text2Make,dotPt,0.12

                End If
        Next

End Sub
