I am having trouble with Civil 3D incorrectly labeling the chord bearings on some of my curves. The program is incorrectly labeling my curves 90 degrees off. I have attached a screen shot of the issue. You can clearly see from the curve table and the curve label that Civil 3D labels the chord bearing SE, but when you do the line and arc inquiry you can see it should be NE. I cannot figure out why it is doing this, but this is a big issue for a survey firm. Does anyone know what could be going wrong?
Thanks,
Thomas

Are you using any expressions in your Label Style Coding? I have seen surveyors use expression coding to correct Parcel rotation differences. I'd like to see a screen shot of the Label Style Composer Content coding.
Thanks for the reply.
Attached is a screen shot of the Label Style Composer Content coding. I am not using any expressions, just the normal Civil 3D properties loaded on to the program. Hopefully this will be helpful to you.
The coding looks ok on this Label Style. Is the error occuring in more than one drawing? does the error occur if you use the National CAD Standards (NCS) Template?
This error has occurred in multiple drawings and it still happens in the NCS template. I work in an office with 2 other CAD technicians and my company has a couple satellite offices with technicians using the same program and the same template. So far, it seems like I am the only one that has experienced this issue.
I am noticing that **error** shows up in the Anchor Component field now. I don't know if that is perhaps related at all.
I had this same issue this past winter. I had to delete the style and redo it. I have also had trouble with my units defaulting to radians or to degree minutes seconds instead of surveyor units. I don't know if this will help, it's how I fixed my "error".
Happy Friday!
Ok so I figured out the issue. The curve was sent to me from an engineer. I ended up having to flatten it and that solved the problem.
