Pipe Label Style

Ok, bout ready to throw the computer out the window! I have a pipe label style which in 2009 was set up to include a part "description" field based off the parts catalog. So as an example it would read 120' OF 18" PVC STORM @ 0.00%. Where the 18" PVC (coming from the description field) was looking at the part name, under the PVC Pipe tab within our network parts list catalog. Now in C3D 2011 this same style, with the same parts list catalog shows up as this: 120'  PVC Pipe STORM @ 0.00%. Anybody know how I can make it go down one more level to show the actual part size name? I've tried pretty much all the related fields  (Name, Desc, Network Name, Part Size Name) none give me the results I am looking for and had in C3D 2009.  The closest I can get is the "Part size name" which will give me 18.0 inch PVC Pipe. I just simply want it to say 18" PVC which is the part name within the catalog. Any ideas?

Check in the help, you can change how the naming convention is (think it was new to 2010) it obviously has changed in your file.

Thanks.... Yup, you can select if you want to use the size name from parts list as description. Located within the Pipe Network Feature Settings. I knew it was somthing pretty simple... that's what makes it so frustrating.
