To Create a COGO Point Report

Create a report that lists user-specified COGO point properties for a selection of points.

Tip: For advanced point queries, use the Query Builder functionality to create a point group and then run the report on that point group.

1. In the Toolspace, on the Toolbox tab, expand Miscellaneous Utilities Reports Point. Double-click Points Report.
2. In the COGO Point Report dialog box, on the Point Selection tab, specify the following parameters.
   • Select Point Group: Select this option to query all the points within specified point groups.
   • Select Points from Drawing: Select this option to graphically select points in the current drawing.
3. On the Point Filters tab, select the check boxes to filter the query:
   • Point Name: Restrict the query to points that have similar names. Use commas (,) to separate multiple entries, and use an asterisk (*) to use a wildcard. For example, PT*,N* is a valid search.
   • Description(s): Restrict the query to points that have similar descriptions. Select Full to use full point descriptions, or Raw to use raw point descriptions.

     You can enter any character; however, commas (,) are treated as separators for separating multiple entries, and asterisks (*) are treated as wildcards. For example, *PTS,*SPT* will search for descriptions that end with PTS or that contain SPT.

   • Level Range: Restrict the query to the levels between low (From) and high (To) level values.
   • Area: Restrict the query to the area within a figure, plot, or closed polyline.
   • User-Defined Property Classification: Restrict the query to points that share a specified a user-defined property set.

   The Selected Points table displays the points that meet the specified criteria.

4. Under Report Settings, use the table to specify the data to include in the report, as well as the order in which the data is presented:
   • Arrow Buttons: Move the currently selected row up or down in the table.
   • Include: Includes a property in the report when the check box is selected. To remove a property from the report, clear the check box.
   • Property: Identifies the property name.
   • Column Name: Specifies the user-defined column name for the property in the report.
5. Under Save Report To, click to browse to the location to which you want to save the report, enter a file name, and select a file format.
6. Click Create Report.

   The report is displayed, and is saved to the specified location.

7. If you want to generate another report, you may modify the report parameters and click Create Report again.
8. Click Done to close the dialog box and save the current report parameters for a future session.
