Hello,
I currently have a long polyline made of many curves and lines which is about a mile long. I know how to hook this up by clicking on every segment and place the join command but this is takes a long time. Is there a easier way to do this?
Thanks
Hi
I suggest looking up the help menu in AutoCAD for 'select objects' or doing an internet search. Here is the first hit I found which should cover some things that could help you.

Also I find using the SELECTSIMILAR and the ISOLATEOBJECTS command useful to select only what want.
Cheers
Hi,
you can use command _PEDIT with the first option "Multiple" ==> than you can select all segments with window or crossing-window selection and use option _JOIN.
Another option might be command _MAPCLEAN, more complex but also more powerful.

I prefer MAPCLEAN with "Dissolve pseudo-nodes" option, but if I'm in a hurry, I use PEDIT=>ALL=>JOIN, fast and safe.

Good point, N: when you have crossing lines, it's mandatory to run Mapclean indeed.
