Subject: RE: [gislist] Shp to DXF
Date:  01/06/2005 08:05:01 AM
From:  Chris Barber



I think AutoCad Map is the only version that will import SHPs, but I'll =
ask this anyway: are you using AutoCad Map? If not, I don't think you =
can do it.

If you are, there are several places you can get snagged.
You must "import attribute data" during "mapimport."
You must create an annotation template (it's like a block). In the =
Annotation text dialog box, "Value" is where you pick the attribute you =
want to display.
You must save the annotation template. It will close and return to the =
original dwg.
You must then goto Map > Annotation > Insert Annotation Template. That =
should do it.

Read every bit of every dialog box. It's can be subtle.

Dear list,
I have a town .shp file with names as an attribute. I
am trying to export this to display town locations and
town names in AutoCad. I have been able to export the
town locations, but cannot seem to get the right
procedure to create the annotation layer.

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Ayo Akinseye
