Survcad 2006-New Pacsoft crd import

[Surveyor]

I noticed that Survcad 2006 says there is a new feature that allows you to
import pacsoft coordinate files. XML2 already has this feature, and it
works..sort of... only it does not read the description file. So all you get
is P,N,E,Z

Does the 2006 routine read all the files correctly so that the descriptions
come across? We have 14 years worth of Pacsoft data and would love to be
able to directly import some of the files.

Jeremy,

Please email me an example of a Pacsoft file along with whatever
description file goes with it and let me put it though the paces. If
there is a problem i can identify we will get it fixed.

For those interested, Dave was able to get a fix worked up within a day.
Works great. Not sure if the fix will be posted on their downloads page or
not. Jeremy
