Point Labels with Station and Offset

I have been searching the board looking for an answer to this but can't find it. I have cogo points with descriptions and an alignment. I am trying to compose a lable for a Cogo Point that looks like this: Point: ### Station: ###+##.## Offset: L##.## Elev: ###.## Desc: ?????? It seems like there should be an easy way to do this but I can't figure it out. I can figure out how to do it using Alignment Labels but really don't want reference each cogo point as there are many. What am I missing? Thanks, Mark

I don't see a way to add a reference text component to a cogo point label

So I *think* you need a 3rd party tool for this, example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUFaE0pK4TI

 

 

But hang around, someone may prove me wrong...

No reference text for points, but you can report sta offeset by point number and present a table.
This may be convoluted but drainage structures can lable station offset and can be numbered like points.

I can add reference text to an alignment label to acomplish my task. Just unfortunate that I have to reference each individual point. I had hoped that maybe there was an expression or something that I could create. Thanks, Mark

Thats why I suggested network structures you wouldn't have to reference anything, but it sounds like you have to refer to the cogo points. Otherwise you would be done very quickly. too bad
