Pipe Network Data Bands

Anyone know if you can label all the pipes connected to a structure using a profile view data band of pipe networks. I know it will label the inflow and outflow pipes that are drawn the profile view but not any other pipes that may be connected to the structure that are not being profiled in that view. I have tried drawing the connecting pipes in the profile view the get the data band to pick it up but doesn't seem to be working.
Thanks,

Can you post a PNG or JPG file to show us what you are trying to do? I'm not sure what you want.
Thanks.

Doesn't your structure label show all your pipes?

Here is a image that may explain what i am talking about. Currently i am using the strucutre label to label my inverts because it does what i want as far as lableing all the pipes for the structure but the drag state stinks because it changes the label attachment point to the middle of the structure rather than the bottom where it is supposed to be.
Thanks for advice.

Due to the Drag state problem I created my base structure label style using
3 line components... a short one near the structure, one that is used as the
text attachment & underline, then the third that connects the first two. By
setting the absolute angles and offsets for the first two lines, then
attaching the connector line to the start/end points, I can quickly create
child styles that only need to have the X offset modified for the Underline
component. In the attached screenshot the label on the right is the base
label, the other 2 are Child styles of that base style, one with an X offset
of -1.0 the other with an X offset of 0.5. Beats trying to get the bands to
do what you want, since they can't.
