This command creates a sewer network file (.sew) from data in
two text files. One text file has the structure data with one
structure per row in the text file with the fields separated by a
comma or other delimiter. The structure file requires name,
northing, easting and rim elevation. Other available fields are
description, rim elevation, depth, description, inlet ID, structure
ID and drop invert. The second file has the pipe data with one pipe
per row. The pipe fields require the names of the connecting
structures. The other fields include the upstream/downstream
structure name, up/down inverts, pipe size, pipe name, pipe
material and pipe manning's n.
The program prompts for the structure file and pipe file to
import and then the sewer network file to output. Then there are
dialogs to specify the format of the input text files. For each
column of data in the input files, choose which field to
assign.
