Client says they want the points file in ESRI format.?ÿ Carlson has, Export_shp , (GIS/Export ESRI SHP file) command.?ÿ Then to check, I created a dummy drawing and imported the SHP.?ÿ I can get the points at the correct X & Y, with the correct description, but the elevation is 0.

I'm thinking that I don't have something setup correctly, but can't figure out what.?ÿ Thanks.

ESRI allows for the direct importing of CSV files if all they are looking for is the point file.?ÿ There is no special format for ESRI points that i have ever heard of.?ÿ ?ÿWe provide our CSV files to our main office (where the GIS guru's reside) for importing often.
