You can continue to build on a pipe network that has been started by using
the tool John mentions, however if two pipe networks have been created
already, I do not know of a way to connect them.
Another alternative might be to consider all of the pipes as part of the
same network, just change their individual styles accordingly to show a
visual distinction between existing and proposed.
I am actually surprised it was possible in 2006. I guess since I tend to
think of my pipe networks as "draining to one point" I would have put them
all in one network from the get go.
Anyone else have feedback?

Hi,
Seems to me that something has changed in the program that will not allow
parts from different networks. I used to be able to connect a proposed pipe
to an existing manhole, but now an error appears saying that parts from
different networks cannot be connected. Since I started this project in
2006, some proposed pipes are connected to existing manholes, but anything
created in 2007 cannot do this. Is there a way to over-ride this feature or
am I stuck with it? Essentially, this comes down to labelling of the pipe
inverts - which I can do manually, but why should I have to.....
Thanks,
Steve Engman
