XYZ Coordinate Annnotation Macro for Drawings

In search of resource for writing custom macro for SolidWorks. Have basic code now that could be modified if it would be of use. Screen snippet is from an AutoCad drawing and the basic example of what needs to be able to be shown on a SolidWorks drawing.
Have a requirement to be able to report X, Y and Z coordinate point information, based on either the world coordinate system, or an alternate coordinate system. And there is a great many points to identify, and would need to be able to recognize unit of measure set in the part or assembly file.
Writing macros and coding is not my forte.
Appreciate any leads, recommendations, and assistance.

I'm guessing maybe you already found this code by handleman (guess who that is)...
