excel coordinates to ROI?

[Roger Phillips]

Dear listmembers,
Can anyone tell me how to convert a large table of XYZ coordinates and/or
XYZ,lenth,angle lines into ImageJ ROIs? I can read the coordinates from a
tab delimited text file and I can make selections by the command
Edit>selection>specify so perhaps I could make a macro to do this? But I
don't know how to get 'specify selection' to take input from the text file.
Sorry for the naive approach, hope you can set me on the right path.

Cheers,
Roger
