Star*net: Easy way to look at 2D data only?

Have a data set that includes V records as well as Angle and Distance records. Short of trying to sort the records (not sure of a way how), and rem-ming them out temporarily, is there an easy way to turn off the elevation data only? I've tried "2D" in the Project Options but that just leads to a ton of errors.

Better yet, is there a way to look at ONLY the elevation data? That's the problem area anyway.

A proxy for looking at elevation data only would be to look at zenith residuals in the listing report.

Use the inline command command "3Reduce". This will cause data that is collected Horizontal angle, slope distance, and zenith angle to be treated a 2d data. In the line before your "2d" data starts put in the line:

[pre].3r[/pre]

When you want to go back to using the elevation companent put in the line

[pre].3d[/pre]

Mark:
Sounds like that will work. Do I understand that I want to sort the data with all the A and D records together, then all the V records (the "3d" data)?

No, you can use the .3r and .3d and on many times as the data warrants, think of it as a switch to turn off and on the 3d data.
