Renumber Points

This command will edit the point number attributes of a group of Carlson points. The command prompts for the user to enter the point number difference. Enter the positive or negative amount you would like to have added/subtracted from the current value. After selecting the point to change, a prompt to delete the old point number is displayed. If yes is chosen the old point number is deleted from the CRD file, if no is selected the old and new point numbers are retained in the file. This results in one coordinate position represented by two point numbers.

The following illustrates number changes from point 4, 5 and 6 to 104, 105 and 106. This prompt sequence retains both numbers in the CRD file. If the intent is to renumber and delete the original points 4, 5 and 6, then Yes would be selected when prompted to Delete old point numbers.
