does anyone know there the file for Carlson entity line types is stored. I am trying to set out field to finish to match our .dwt and cannot find some of the line types to load in to the template. Rockwall would be one example.

Many of the various linetypes are stored in a standard *.LIN linetype file that is commonly found under your given application data folder. The suggested method I typically offer on how to locate this folder is via the Windows Start -- Run routine (the following can also be accomplished via the Windows File Explorer):

  1. In the dialog box (or address bar of Windows Explorer), key-in %AppData% and click OK/press Enter:
  2. In the folder listing that appears, locate the Carlson Software folder and drill-down to the SUP (support) folder. You'll find *.LIN files here.

Please note, however, some of the more complex linetypes (e.g. such as the aforementioned Rockwall) are hard-coded into the software and are not stored in a *.LIN file.
