data linking a pipe network

[brennsvette]

I've created a base drawing that include my entire pipe network but want to create seperate drawings for the profile views. In order to do this I've data linked my pipe network but when it comes into the drawing it loses the label/pipe/structure styles of the original drawing. For example I have a style for existing catchbasins with a city standard block attached for plan view but when I create the reference for the data link it reverts to the city standard manhole block for all structures in the drawing. The same thing happens for the pipe styles which is a bigger pain because there are a larger number of styles. Anyone know if there is a way to have the data link keep it's original properties? Thanks.

when you creating a quick link from source file, there will be a options window,
add a tick near the Add Source Labels and then create a link.

Hi Shane,
Make sure the styles you want to use are in your DWT that you are using for your Planset. You may still need to create the reference and reset the styles in each sheet, but even doing this is much faster than everything you used to do when creating numerous plansheets. (Even with Xrefs)
