MLeader with [ATTRIBUTE]

[aehlers]

I'm struggling to create an MLeader object with MText:

 

\LCONSTRUCTION NOTE:\l\P[ATTRIBUTE]

 

I wish to:

 

1) use command "ATTOUT" to create a text file "[drawing]ATTOUT.txt" in the drawing folder (in Windows Explorer) containing a seperate block named "POINT" with attribute [POINT] and MLeader(or block) named "CNOTE" with attribute [CNOTE],

 

2) change [CNOTE] value for all [POINT] values in Excel workbook,

 

3) save Excel workbook to (Tab-delimited) "[drawing]ATTIN.txt" in the same drawing folder (in Windows Explorer),

 

4) use command "ATTIN" to change [ATTRIBUTE] and [POINT] values.

 

I'm running AutoCAD 2014 Map3D, Windows 7, and Excel 2010.

 

Thank you for any advice or routines to make this possible!
