This command converts AutoCAD Map LPN links to Carlson GIS links.
The command starts
by prompting you to select entities to process. Then the program will
read all the Map LPNs
attached to the selected entities. A dialog is shown with a list of the
LPN names. In order to be able
to convert an LPN, the LPN must have a key field called PT_ID. Also,
the
database file and table referenced by the LPN must exist. In the
dialog, highlight the
LPN to convert and then pick
the Convert button. The Map links are then removed and replaced by
Carlson GIS links. This
routine will run in either plain AutoCAD or AutoCAD Map.
