I have a label in alignment that results (0+300). How can i change this (a function if could be) to show (P01, P02, P03...etc) in all stations?

I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish. Instead of the alignment label of 0+300, you want P03? Perhaps a picture could help out.

I try to explain. An alignment has a start point...like 0+000km and than after 100,00m has 0+100km...and a few meters...1+000km...ok? I would change this to where is 0+000 it must be P01...than after 100,00m it would be P02...and so on to the finish of the alignment. Any ideas? Sorry my english, i just try to explain.

Matt's drawing here shows the concept that you are looking for. It's in miles, but should be easily adaptable to every 1,000 km. http://discussion.autodesk.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=6272378&#6272378

Its too much complex. I only want to modify where is 0+000...0+020...0+040 to P00, P01, P02...P03...and so on. Number only at the station mark. Is that so dificult? Or i have a solution to do that? Thanks. I attached a file to show what i want.

Got it! Create an expression that divides the station value by 1000. (ex: 0+010/1000=0,01 or 0.01 in US). In the label, put in a P and then add the expression but in the format, only display the value to the right of the decimal (P01).

That works. But it only shows P00, P02, P04, P06...and not P00, P01, P02, P03...any ideas?
...after a few moments...it gives light!...we are dividing /1000, but if we divide /2000 it works great. Thanks for your help.

Bad news. When the numbers get to 99 it starts again at 00 and should move to the 100. Any suggestions? Thank you.

If you could settle for P1, P2, P3, ... P9, P10, P11, ... P98, P99, P100, P101 it would be a piece of cake but P01 and then P101 is going to be a pain.

Here's a file that has the label that shows correctly.
