Notes
You can import a file containing survey information as long as the survey information is
formatted correctly.
•
The file must start with Begin Survey and end with End.
•
The second line must be a coordinate.
•
The remainder of the file can be made up of lines or arcs. A line is defined by
direction and length.
•
A curve is defined by the word curve, followed by a letter representing the side of
the arc to put the radius. This is followed by the length of the radius and the length
of the arc. The arc is completed with a bearing from the start to finish point.

Advanced file management allows you to save multiple routes and draw layers in
a single Map File. Simplified file management lets you save only one route and/or
draw layer in a single Map File. If you did not select to enable advanced file
management during the product installation, you can still change the settings
using the Change File Management option in the Options menu. For more
