I can create a new north arrow and find it's thumbnail in the
"tools"~"import symbols" but it isnot found under "annotation"~"draw north
arrow" Is there someway to edit the "draw north arrow" file to include
custom north arrows?
When I access under "tools"~"edit symbol file" the north arrow file is not
listed.

Replace one of the North01-North24 with yours.

Don,

There isn't any way to add to the north arrow library found under the
annotate pulldown. The best option I can offer is to create your own
category under the Edit Symbol Library and place your custom north arrows
there.

In the Carlson Software 2004\support\ subdirectory, you will see all the

north arrows. Rename North01 to North01a and replace North01 with your
own north arrow. It will show up as the first pick when you want to
insert by Annotate/draw north arrow. This works for me. Let me know if
you cannot get it to work for you.
