Subject: Re: [gislist] Help Converting Shape to CAD
Date:  04/06/2006 11:20:02 PM
From:  Margaret Gooding

day. Once in a great while ArcMap crashes, but usually only if there
are a great many labels. I find it works without fail every time if I
choose the create annotation in the map for the current extent.
