Import GIS Data from SurvCE

This command reads GIS attribute data collected with SurvCE and Imports it into the drawing and embeds it within the point blocks in the drawing as Esri MSC that can be read directly by ArcGIS.  The setup is to have a coordinate file (.CRD) set current, the points drawn in the drawing, an applicable attribute definition file (.GIS), and a file that is storing the attribute values (.VTT), that was created by SurvCE.  You are prompted to pick the GIS file, and then the data from the VTT is imported and embedded within the matching point blocks in the drawing.
