(.. using Map 2016)
I've used MAPIMPORT to bring subsets of data into a specific area from .shp files representing utility lines and appurtenances. The extended data is contained within these, and I'm trying to define an annotation template that will allow stringing several properties together and possibly adding text. Is there a way to do this?
For instance, SIZE and MATERIAL might be properties, and I'd want the label to pull these so the final text reads Exist. 8" PVC WW.
I've tried different approaches to syntax in the expression entry bar when making an annotation template, but apparently I'm missing something. Things like:
concat ( '<string>' , <Expression> , <etc> ) like you'd see in the data schema when adding labels to GIS features. Also,
(substr "<string>" &Data@DataProperty) but this one just regurgitates the expression when used.
Any help would be appreciated.
