Jeff,
Update: No security issues and it looks like others using W7 and 64bit have seen results so I must be missing something.
Thanks again, Rich
Can someone tell me how to "edit the target" to point to this DLL?
I'm using C3D 2011
On the Toolbox tab of Toolspace, click the red folder with the pencil icon (1) in the attached image. Expand the treeview in the Panorama to show the Parcel Reports, select the (2) Parcel Map Check Report, edit the (3) path & file name for the execute file (you can type it in or browse to it by clicking the icon to the right (not shown in this image).
Thanks Jeff, I like it.
Jeff,
Finally figured the "Resource" file needed to be in the same folder. The report now works and is a welcome improvement.
Thanks, Rich
Hey Jeff,
We recently upgraded to C3D 2013 and wondering if you have an updated version of your map check report?
Thanks for all your help!

Jeff,
Is it possible to have the report list both square footage and acreage? I was looking at the XML reporting units and it looked like it could only do square feet and square meters. Showing square footage and acreage would be sweet, though.
Ian, while possible it's not trivial. The way the reports are written is to use the Parcel Ambient Settings. I guess one could add some code to have it check what the current setting is (square feet, square meters, acres, hectares, etc.) and have a secondary output based on that.
Actually , this wasn't too difficult to add the acres portion when the parcel area units are set to square feet. That's the only one I changed, Attached are 2 zips, one for 2012, another for 2013. I will work on one for 2014 soon.
This is what the output now looks like:
Perimeter: 5185.353' Area: 1068902.56 Sq.Ft. (24.54 Acres)
Error Closure: 0.0020 Brg: N17° 10' 30"W
Error North : 0.00192 E: -0.00059
When I had created the previous modified reports I had used the same source code from back in 2009 or 2010. Autodesk has updated their source to allow saving to different file formats and my previously posted code does not. So here is a new modified report based on the C3D2013 source code. I think I have made all of the changes previously made, except this time I added an option to include the segment #'s or leave them off. When the parcel area units is set to square feet, I added acres to the output.
Note that this file contains only the ParcelMapCheck code, so do not rename and copy over the the existing C3DReports.dll. Instead, place it in a folder and edit the Toolbox to add the location and set the macro name ParcelMapCheck. If anyone wants the source code, just ask.
Jeff,
When you said to "edit the Toolbox to add the location" were you talking about right clicking on the Parcel report and adding a "New Tool"? Then pointing the execute file to your modified one and using ParcelMapCheck as the Macro Name. I have set the execute type to .NET but after saving, the report does not show up in the toolbox (even after refreshing) and it also fails when I try to execute it in toolbox editor. I am trying to use this in Civil 2014 if that makes a difference.
Thanks,
Chris
