Is there any way of determing, how it's data should be read? I have the complete dxf file to this but I'm not sure if I can hand it out.

I find XRecords are best viewed through the VLISP IDE, using the watch and/or object browser.

Look up DXF 310 here http://images.autodesk.com/adsk/files/acad_dxf0.pdf

[S.Langhammer]

I keep forgetting to mention, that I'm using BricsCAD and don't have the possibility to use AutoCAD. I have no such thing as a VLISP IDE. That had put me through a lot of trouble before.

As I understood it, the DXF group code 310 can hold any kind of binary data. But is there a way of determing what kind? Can I find any kind of dictionary object, that could tell me, what kind of information that is?
