Area vs. Square Area in Closure Summary of Mapcheck

I'd like to know how to changes the settings for the "Square Area" in mapcheck's closure summary.  When I right-click the dwg name in the Settings tab of Toolspace and choose Edit Drawing Settings, then Ambient Settings, I see the Area settings, but in the closure summary, there is also "Square Area".  Why are these both there?  It WOULD be nice to show sq. ft. as well as acres, but I can't find anywhere to edit it.

 

Thanks!

I was able to get this to work the way you want by setting Acres in Drawing Settings and setting Square Feet (with Override turned on) in Survey Feature Settings. The Mapcheck (you are talking about Survey Mapcheck?) closure then shows area in Acres and Square Area in square feet.

That's as clear a solution to my problem as I could ask for.  Much obliged Tim!
