I give up... I believe I've scratched the bottom of the search barrel... so, I mustva' missed something in plain sight... Because I know Trimble would not have done this...
So, question;
Is TBC able to "explode points" as in TGO. I certainly assume I am not required to and then re- the points... ???? I am speaking of the that is attached to the observations. If one is entered incorrectly, and is actually a great distance away, it will obviously not adjust very well... so, the easy answer is to correctly change the of the incorrectly entered point to it's proper name. Can't seem to find that in TBC... only thing that has "explode" in it, is the command, which is for Autocad blocks. All other edit points are either grayed out, or changes all the observations point ID's...
Any help greatly appreciated, thanks in advance, Rw
Expand the points in the project explorer and disable the bad observation? You can then key in the point that you'd like to hold and give it the correct point quality.
Select the point you want to change, right click, select properties, edit the point ID, hit enter.

Thanks for getting back to me...
If I understand correctly, that'll allow turning off the bad vectors, which are really good vectors - just too another point, and resolving the position of that one pt.
But, if I have say 6 vectors to 3 pts, that'll not really allow resolution of the other two points...
I could follow that process, create two additional blank (or bogus) coords, turn off the specific observations for each of the three points, adjust, move coords to newly created points, and leave the one point as is... with all the observations still attached... as I might have to re-adjust for any new observations. This wouldn't really allow updating point positions with new observations easily...
In less I'm still missing something, which is certainly possible, I think Trimble needs to update program with simple command... ???
Thanks again,Rw
Thanks DWolfe, but this will change the point ID, but all the same observations still attached to the new point ID... including the observations to other actual ground points. I need to separate - say 6 vecs to 3 pts - into singular observations, then renumber to proper pt IDs - say 1, 2 & 3... then merge the 3 pairs (2-vecs)into 3 pts, then adjust... ???
Ok, looks like I didn't understand your problem. Just to clarify, I'm assuming point ID's were incorrectly or not entered in the field and that they were not entered/edited in the import dialog box before saving?
Correct... for whatever reason, I can think of a few - maybe none to be prideful about, but then maybe some not to be ashamed of either, I digress -, I have, for sake of explanation, 6 vecs showing to a single Pt. ID (already labeled in field, already sucked into TBC project - import dialogue box). The realty is 2 vecs go to each of the 3 ground points. I would like to separate all the observations, then renumber to the proper 3 numbers, then the two observations to each point into 1 point = 3 total pts. with 2 vecs each when complete.
In TGO the process was simple... the source point, ... and that was it... I could correct the Point ID, then the 6 observations into the target 3 points.
Ok, I get it now 😉 I'm afraid though, I won't be much help. I always try to correct these things before import (in the data collector itself, using DC file editor or the import dialog box where you can edit point id's and antenna heights). Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Yep, yours is certainly the preferred method... alas, mine the backup...
thank you for taking the time to review & think about it...
later, Rw
