Id like to change our default profile settings such as some of the labels and prefixs. Is there a simple way to do this? Maybe a file i can edit or even if i knew the command i could use lisp.
Thanks,

under the Project-Prototype Manager, you can define multiple "templates" ( actually Prototypes) with various settings that you want and them save them as a new prototype. Once you have them defined, simply use that prototype when you create a new project. Changing in midstream can be a bit tricky though. You can write a routine to modify many properties while in a drawing session, and some can be manipulated in the dfm file(s) associated with the project and\or drawings.
Or while in the file use Profiles>Profile Settings>Profile Layers to adjust them
on a project by project basis.
Or, on another note. If you are just looking to change the layer properties, you can always write a script routine to just change properties of the default layers and run it after you have your profiles created. Something along these lines....
save this as an scr file and then run it. The reason I have the * in front is to include all layers that have the alignment name attached to them. Make sure that you watch which layers you are setting in order when using wildcards though. An example is the PFGR layers, with the wildcard at the end, it will change the text layer also, so you will need to add the text layer setting after setting the ones for the profile linework.Code:;;;Set Profile Layers ;**** -layer c 251 *PBASE c 1 *PEGC c 251 *PVGRID,*PGRID c 4 *PGRIDT c 1 *PEGL* , *PEGR* -layer c 3 *PFGC,*PFGL,*PFGR,*PFGR*,*PFGL* c 2 *PFGCT,*PFGLT,*PFGRT -layer lt DASHED2 *PEGC,*PEGR,*PEGL
