    ENTITY/LN1
    NUMBER/XYZ(3)
    LN1=LINE/-1,0,1,0
    XYZ=&ATDISL(LN1)

The variable array XYZ would be assigned the values (0,0,0) which is the midpoint of line LN1. The statements below alter the origin and cause the name to be displayed at the coordinates (.5,.5,0).

    XYZ(1)=.5
    XYZ(2)=.5
    &ATDISL(LN1)=XYZ
