Polylines And Dynamic Labels

Hello!


To start out, I am not a Land-Desktop user. So please excuse any incorrect
Land-Desktop terminology used.

Within Land-Desktop I have a closed polyline (a pond for example). Each
segment, of the polyline, was dynamically labeled using the Land-Desktop
label tool. I am trying to programmatically collect each segments labeled
text (MTEXT) to create a Legal Description document. Any ideas on this
would be helpful.

My approach was to generate an AutoLISP program. At first glance I figured
this would be a relatively easy task. I thought I would just hone in on the
polyline DXF code and drill through this entity and procure all associated
MTEXT. The problem is, when I examine the polyline DXF code data, I can't
see any pointers (sub-entities) to the associated MTEXT. Where is the MTEXT
stored?


Thanks!

I'd suggest (no order intended) you use one of the following:

Parcels
Bud Miller's Legal Description writer
Cadlantic's POLYDESC
