Extracting a point from a circle

I have searched and find numerous posts with code posted but nothing defines the menu sequence for extracting points from a circle or cylinder. What are the steps using PC-DMIS' menus for this.

TIA

Are you trying to extract the nominals and ijk vectors from individual points of a circle?

under insert menu assignment and a box will come up from there you should be able to see how has drop downs

Well I was playing around and found what I wanted. Ya'll have shown how to do it with code so many times I just was having a hard time figuring out how to actually do it.
