    Updating Styles in Civil 3D 2011

    I have a job that the customer provide the original CAD files with Civil 3D styles in them. As the project has progressed we have found many of the styles were not created properly and notified the customer. They have told us to fix the errors and send them the corrections...

     

    Now that I have one file working properly I have to push the changes to the 30+ styles through the 100+ files of the job. Is there a quick way to do this in Civil 3D 2011? (It is part of our contract to use this specific program and release year without converting the files.) Or do I need to drag-and-drop each style into each file?

     

    Thanks in advance.

    For this task you might consider third party software. SincpacC3D's ExportCivilStyles would make this job a bit easier and definitely quicker, although still not completely automated as you'd need to export to each drawing. But it will beat the drag-n-drop method!
