Anyone out there know how to automatically generate a station/offset table for a list of points? It looks like Sincpac software will do it, but our company didn't buy the full version. Are there any other options?

In the TOOLBOX of your TASKSPACE select REPORTS, POINTS, STATION OFFSET TO POINTS.

From the dialog box, select which points and which alignment...create report.

Just tell your boss you need to upgrade your Sincpac-C3D... 🙂

Among other things, adding the Power Module would also give you the DisplayPoints command, which is an incredibly powerful tool for Surveyors using C3D.

Could you just sell your stuff to ADesk already so that they can start getting a decent product for surveyors, that engineer owners will pay for? Sheesh.

I can't believe how painful it has been to learn how to survey efficiently inside vanilla C3D.

Seriously though, when we upgrade to 2011, we'll probably be upgrading your software as well. It just won't help me for this particular project.

I don't know... If Autodesk bought my software, it would probably be "Autodeskified", which might not be to your advantage... 🙂
