top of the morning to ya....
quick basic question for a friday....

we have a longsect with chainages marked as 13.23 etcetc....but we now decided to shorten the start of the section by -13.23m...after using CAB's TXTINC http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=518.15;topicseen it was easy to change the section BUT the chainages on the plan are prefixed with 'CH'...i have now find/replaced them so they are just real numbers 13.23 and again used CAB's TXTINC to change them, but id like to prefix the numbers again with CH.

Im going to have to do it the good ole fashioned way this morning, but was wondering if theres a prefix text lisp out there......a quick search on the swamp didnt turn up anything.....

cheers swampers.....

 :ugly: :ugly: Duh.....im dreaming of the weekend already....CAB's code actually does this  :ugly:

perhaps i shoulda read the destructions more carefully!!!
