Creating a .pts file from a text file

I am having a little trouble importing a list of datum points and diameters into ProE. I am having trouble converting this text file into a .pts file so that I can open it within the datum point array. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Pick on Points, Offset Csys, select csys, cartesian or cylindrical or spherical (your preference), read points, select the pts file.



or convert the pts file to an ibl file and do the same.
 
I can get to the point in the datum point array where it gives you the option of entering the datum points by hand or import a file, unfortunately it doesn't recognize my text file. So I am trying to covert my file type into .pts so that ProE will acknowledge my file
