AutoCAD Map 3D :: Database Link Only Generates One Record?
Jul 21, 2011
I have been working on some drawings when I linked up to a database that I had recently generated. I wanted to link some polylines to an external MS Access database so that I would have the additional object data available in the drawing. I attached the Access database, then created a link template on the key field (key field is called PipeID). I then used the "mapod2ase" command to generate the links based on the link template. However, when I went into the object properties to check on the data, the only field that came up under the link was the key field (PipeID). I have tried re-linking a number of times, but each time I only get the key field in the object data. I can open the table itself from the task pane, and it shows all of the fields, and the links work because the highlighting feature works as normal, but the data is not showing up in the properties.
I was thinking that I may have reset some sort of system variable on accident, so I made the same sort of link to an older table that I have used before. When I link to this table, all of the linked data shows up in the object properties. The only real difference between the two access databases is that the one that works was made in Access 2000, and the one that is not working was made in Access 2007. Is there some sort of problem when linking to the newer versions of Access? (see this post:[URL]

I have some files (OK, 11,000 of them) and they have drawings on the bottom and text on the top. I want to erase this text and replace it with data that comes from a database. I don't know where to start.
I need to:
1. preferably find a way to erase the old data on the top, but I could do it manually
2. Insert data from specific fields into specific spots on the drawings.
3. Each drawing would have the same fields but different data corresponding to an account number. The account number is included in the name of the drawing and is a field in the database.
How to get started? I have Map3D as well, which I was told would work better than regular AutoCAD on this, but I also have regular AutoCAD. I can't even figure out how to make the database connection work.

I am looking into using the Survey Database for the first time and noticed it linked back to the imported file from which the points came. However, my question is when the points are adjusted within the AutoCAD file is there a way for this adjustment to link back into the imported point file. I am trying not to have a situation where the data is different between the imported file and the autocad file.

I am working on the AutoCAD customization and doing the same by VB.Net & C#.Net. But I just want to know the difference as mentioned below:
1. Insert Block In AutoCAD
Using VB.Net without using DataBase services..Only 1 statement is required to Insert the Block objAcadDocument.ModelSpace.InsertBlock(Required Arguments are here) Using C#.Net with DataBase services
There are many statments are there to insert only 1 block..Like Start Transaction, Lock the document, Get the Object Id Block etc...So my quetion is that when I have to use DataBase services and when not
what is the advantage of doing customization using DataBase services rather than go for wihout DataBase services.?

Here is my C#
private void Button1Definition_OnExecute(NameValueMap context)
{
try
{
// get current document
PartDocument oCurrentDoc = m_inventorApplication.ActiveDocument as PartDocument;
PartComponentDefinition oCompDef = oCurrentDoc.ComponentDefinition;
[Code] ....
The line:
body.CalculateStrokes(.1, out VertexCount, out SegmentCount, out VertexCoordinates, out VertexIndices);
ALWAYS generates a COMException 0x80020005 (Type mismatch). I am trying to figure out if my paramaters are wrong...

C3D2012. We have a master C3D template that includes a number of point filters (let say 20 of them) and a number of layouts (again, let say 20 of them) to accommodate our two sheet sizes.
Here is the issue that I am running into, when the Plan Production tools use a layout to create plan and profile sheets from the same master template that is used to initially create the file, the whole process will duplicate each point group 150 times for every group (see attached). So, what I ended up with is 20 point groups X 150. In my example, I ended up with 3000 duplicate point groups.
The end result is a file that is somewhat unusable do to the number of point groups. The other issue is now that all of these point groups are in the file you are unable to delete them all at once without "crashing" C3D. So you are left to deleting a handful at time. It is also best if you turn UNDO off while you do it.
I have been able to duplicate this in multiple files; however, from the same master template. As a test I did create separate templates (which are pretty bare bones) for the plan production and all works well. Therefore, there is either an issue with C3D and Plan Production and point groups or it is our template.
I would really like to nail down (as best I can) what is generating the 150 duplicates/ point group name to see if there is a way "around" this.
Currently, I am unable to share the template, but it shouldn't be too difficult to re-create. Take any template, add some point groups to, add a plan and profile sheet to one of the layouts, create a new file from this template, finally create plan and profile sheets from the layout in the very same template.

Working in assemblies with multi-solid parts or parts with derived geometry generates unstable environments with multiple crashes per day. Some crashes don't even prompt a crash report. This has been going on through multiple versions of Inventor up til 2012 which I am currently using now. Has or will this ever be addressed?

I have full app access and am hoping one of the CC programs will do what I want. I currently use Crash Plan+ to back up all my pic/vid files. I have no complaints except when I want to use restore I can only see file type/name but not a preview. So its hit and miss when trying to restore a generic file name photo/vid. My question is, is there an Adobe CC product that I can use to generate separate thumbnails that I can generate and save to a file that has all the files in a given folder. That way I can just restore the thumbnail file for that folder and see what files are in it with preview pics and find which files on the CrashPlan+ restore console to download. That way I can restore a much smaller file with views of all pics vs having to restore a whole folder of 25+mb files just to find the one I want.

Is there a way to shut off the automated new "images" folder Illustrator generates when Saving for Web with slices? I have image folders inside image folders inside image folders. I can't seem to find a preference to turn this feature off. I am using Illustrator CC on a Mac running OS 10.8.4

Adobe informed me that web gallery creation is no longer available in Bridge CC. I was told to download Lightroom for this capability. When I tried to do that, I was told that my operating system 10.6.8 is not compatible. I use 10.6.8 to use third party software. Will Adobe return this feature to Bridge?
If so, add a watermark feature (such as the one that Dr. Russell Brown created for CS6) Also, include more html5 galleries or galleries that will appear on multiple kinds of devices.

I'm having difficulty writing a script that deletes all of the symbols in the document (as opposed to just breaking links or expanding which I apparently cannot do). app.sourceDocument.symbols.removeAll();When it reaches a symbol that's used in the document somewhere it spits out this error: Error 1200: an Illustrator error occurred: 1346458189 ('MRAP')

I'm messing around with tables and data links, practicing. I copied a range of cells in Excel, and did paste special to create a linked table.
Now I can delete the table object, but I cannot delete the link, cannot detach it.
When in Data Manager if I right click on the data link and click delete I get the error message "The data link is being used and cannot be deleted".
I have tried detaching, and the detach does not seem to take.
Now also, the table will not update from the source xls.
Win XP, AcadLT 2011, Office 2010. Using compatible setting for saving spreadsheet, for Office 2007 (not xlsx).
If I create a linked table by starting with the Table icon, choose "from a data link", choose the excel spreadsheet, etc., then I am able to later update the table from the spreadsheet, detach, delete the link, etc. But I can only delete the link if the table is not selected when I open the Data Link Manager.
But the one that was created following the directions from the Autocad video, with the copy, paste special, that link will not detach nor delete.

I've created a shared sketch and have used it with various features. Sometime those features are suppressed. The model works fine but the shared sketch generates a sketch doctor error because the feature that created it has been suppressed. Is there anyway to make the sketch suppressed so it doesn't trigger a sketch doctor error? Inventor 2013

I'm running Map 2012 64 bit on Windows 7. I've connected to an sdf file through FDO. In the sdf file, it has points representing where people live. Some of the records have the person's information, but no point associated with it. Is there a way to add a point to an existing record through FDO? Typically, i'll create a new point, then re-enter all the data i need for that person and then delete the old record.

I have to put out record drawings that contain C3D objects; Surfaces, Contour labels, Points and Point tables.
Many drawing Xrefs are nested. I tried the Civil batch converter with xref binding turned off and objects set to explode, and I get error messages, and the task is never completed. Is there a work around procedure to preserve the C3D information in each drawing? Can points be exploded and retain their apperance?

I have a set of Design Drawings on my desk that I need to produce a set of Record Drawings. The Design Drawings are a combination of three original contracts so the file paths for these drawings are scattered thru three project folders. Is there an easy way to create a new Sheet Manager for my Record Drawings. If I open the original Design Drawings and use "Save As" then the drawings being saved to the new Record Drawing Sheet Manager are all tied to the original Design Sheet Manager.
To copy the drawings to the Record folder I will have to open them and relink all xrefs besides having to determine the file path of each drawing to be sure I am copying the correct files to the Record Drawing Folder. Is the easiest solution to use "Save As" and insert a new border with the corrected "Fields' so they are now connected to the Record Drawing Sheet Manager?

Without automation development, what is the procedure to get a digital record of the existing road lane slope?
I recommend the following:
1
Use the OverlayWidenMatchSlope1 rehab subassembly to build a corridor, targeting the existing road surface
2
Make a report using Corridor > Feature Line Report, reporting the Links to get the slope
Am I correct?
