    Default Point location

    Working in Autodesk Land Desktop 2006. I brought in a point file using the import points command with the format of PNEZD. I noticed that they all came in about 15' (in the same direction) from where they should have. If I pick on the point and list it, it shows the correct northing and easting, but the marker location is at the wrong coordinate. So when ever I try to do anything with points it is using the marker location which is wrong. Also, I just imported them into a new project and everything came in where it should.
    Thanks for any help,
    Wayne

    Default Re: Point location

    I found the answer. I had previously checked to make sure my "base" was set to 0,0,0; but that is an AutoCAD command. I did not check under Projects/Drawing Setup/Base Point. Someone had changed this from 0,0,0 for some reason. Dirty little gremlins.
