| Subject: | [gislist] Generating Section Corner Layer Fields and Labels |

I've posted this question to the ESRI forum list with no response yet and it
doesn't seem like a technical support question so I'm hoping someone from
this list has a suggestion for me.
I'm using ArcInfo9.2 and would like to calculate the section number
attributes for an existing section corner point layer. Once the four new
attribute fields (NE, NW, SE and SW sections) are created and attributed for
each section corner point, I'd like to label a symbol with the new attribute
fields so that the appropriate section number shows up within its respective
corner of the symbol (similar to how a CAD Section Corner symbol would look.
I'm not a programmer so, if this requires programming, I'm in trouble. I
tried HawthsTools 'Intersect Point Tool' and tried to intersect the PLSS
section polygon layer with the section corner point layer but it crashed.
Apparently, it isn't able to recognize that each section corner point
intersects four distinct section polygons.
This seems like a fairly straight-forward task so I'm hoping there's a tool
or command for generating the new fields so I don't have to calculate the
data manually.
The second part to this is finding an ESRI section corner symbol that will
allow me to enter each section number label within the appropriate quadrant
of the symbol. Instead of labeling the section polygons in my maps, I'd
rather label the section corner symbols.
I appreciate any and all help.
