38 | Chapter 3 Working with COGO Points
Creating the point database involves
■ Setting the character limit for point descriptions (2 to 254).
■ Choosing whether to use point names, and then setting the character
limit for point names (2 to 254).
After you create the point database, you can choose the database open mode
by running the Point Database Setup command. To run this command,
choose the Point Database Setup command from the Points
➤ Point
Management menu.
You can open the database so that only you have write access to it, or you can
open it in multi-user mode so that multiple people can open and write to the
point database.
If other people are using the point database, then you cannot switch from
multi-user to single-user mode until the other people close the point
database. To identify the users currently using the point database, click
Other Users.
