point label reference text

i need to get a station and offset for a bunch of points and have it show up in the point label. i can't find reference text in the label style so i was wondering if there was a good workaround.

This is the best method I know of:

Dynamically Linked Points

The linked video on that page shows how this is done. The latest version also allows you to place the Alignment name in a UDP so it can be included in a table.

If your looking for a workaround the quick version is:

 

Create a point at each location.

Run station/offset report

use excel to attach staion and offset to points

reimport points.

 

If you would like a more detailed instruction method i will gladly give you one.

Thanks,
Dave
