StationOffset Method Fails with Negative Coords

    Anyone have this problem? (Please don't ask why it's in the negatives, I don't know)

    We're trying to get the station/offset from an AECC point. The routine works well, unless the alignment falls in a negative coordinate. If that's the case, both the station and offset are wrong.

    Suggestions (besides moving the project!)?

    TIA

  2. Hi,

    Make a temporary copy of the alignment by adding 10000 to the Eastings and
    Northings
    Do the query for the point coordinates incremented in the same way.
    Delete the temporary alignment (at the appropriate time, presuming you are
    likely to make more than one call in your program.)
