Convert GIS Links to AcadMap

This command converts Carlson GIS links to AutoCAD Map LPN links. The command starts by prompting you to select entities to process. Then the program will read all the Carlson GIS links attached to the selected entities. A dialog is shown with a list of all the pairs of database file and table names from the GIS links. Fill in the LPN name to use for the Carlson GIS link. If the LPN does not exist, it will be created. The LPN will be registered in MapPlus, if MapPlus is available. When the LPN names are filled out, pick the Convert button and the Carlson GIS links will then be removed and replaced by AutoCAD Map LPNs. This routine will run in either plain AutoCAD or AutoCAD Map.
