Creating Survey Database from Points in Drawing

Im trying to create a survey data base from the points of a drawing. I have created the survey data base. Then I specify the data source type as "Points From Drawing", then I press the tap of"Select points in currente drawing" And I cannot select anything

You should be able to select 1 point at a time, but if you have a lot of points to do the best way would be to export those points from the drawing to a point file and then import that into the survey database.

Thanks. How do you export the point to a file point? Manually (one by one)?

Are these drawing points Cogo Points?
If so you should be able to select them all in the drawing to add them to the survey database using these various options.

Also be sure to choose "open for edit" on survey database name on survey tab of toolspace first.
