I have survey data in a DWG in State Plane and I have an image in UTM.
I want to have the image behind my survey data.
I have read a few posts on attaching and querying, but I am not fully clear on it. Been spending some time trying to figure it out, and it's not working out.
My concern is I don't know any common points that the 2 have. I wasn't in the field collecting this information, and the people that were want to see how this data looks over an image.
Any one have any suggestions?

Thanks
Dennis

Not that one, but seen a few that descibe things like it.
I guess my guestion is when you say "run query".....I am confused.
What is the query I need to enter?

You could just do a simple location all query. This will pull in everything from each attached drawing.
