I am running Carlson Survey 2015 OEM on Windows 7 Home Premium (home laptop setting up drawing templates, field to finish, etc). I also want to set up workflow/protocol for loading raw data into SurvNet.
I thought it only natural to open SurvNet to see what data files I can import (looking to use TDS Raw, and Sokkia Locus vectors). Unfortunately I can't even get SurvNet to launch. I called Carlson Support and they suggested I install the latest build (1/22/2015). I did this and then tried to launch SurvNet again. Still no luck.
Any suggestions?
1. What happens when/if you key-in survnet at the Command prompt?
2. Are you launching Carlson Survey via its installed software short-cut icon or by double-clicking a DWG file (which fires the Windows File Association)? If you use the latter, I'd suggest using the former so that the proper start-up settings can be initialized.
I had a similar problem last year. After a number of emails with Dean Goodman and Leonid Entov at Carlson, I checked the properties of the survnet.exe file. For some unknown reason the file was set to "Run as Administrator". I unchecked that box and it started without issue after that.
It might not be your problem, but it could be worth checking.

I have it running but can't get it to accept an OPUS-RS file. Is there only one part of the file that I should be using, or is it the whole thing?
I use the survnet tab with a drawing open, but it is a blank drawing with no crd file created yet; could that be the problem? I'm just trying to test it to see how it deals with the OPUS file.

Same result, no SurvNET.

Using the shortcut icon.

I checked that this morning. The box is unchecked already. Thanks for trying to help.
