Use AutoCAD Civil 3D to view and edit an existing field book file.

Load a field book file into a text editor so that you can view or edit it.

Note

Notepad is the text editor unless you specify another editor in the External Editor in the Survey User Settings dialog box. For more information, see Specifying External Editor Settings.

Best Practice

To work correctly, a field book file must be in an ASCII format.

  1. In Toolspace, on the Survey tab, expand the Networks collection and right-click on a network name.
  2. Click Edit Field Book.
  3. In the Field Book Filename (.FBK) dialog box, browse to the field book that you want to edit. Click Open.

  4. The field book contents are displayed in the text editor.

  5. Make any necessary changes and save the file.
