James,
How yah doin Big guy! Have they been keeping you busy? Have you run off any
surveyors lately?
Thanks for the input. Your right, Until they get some flexibility for
working with multiple users your
solutions sound like what we will have to do. I'd much rather have some
ability to break the files out so
I can utilize more people. Normally this is a huge amount of data that needs
to be entered.
detailing 6-10 sheets might take 8 hours.
After waiting this long for something new with sections (years.....) I
thought they would of address this area better.
Highways & Runways are built off sections ( That's were profits go....)
detailing & working sections.
Thanks, Have a great day.
John
