Entering survey data into Autocad Architecture 2008

[km2kiwi]

I'm new to CadTutor and hope someone may be able to help. I need to enter survey data for a site plan. I have the distance and bearing for each boundary but cannot get the format I found on CadTutor to work. I read the tutorial on Entering Survey Data using AutoCad but I must have a drawing setting wrong. I tried all kinds of settings in the units window. Any ideas?

to enter the bearing and distance, if you turn on the dyn button at the bottom of the screen, and then type units. Under the angle area change it to survey units. and the precision to "N00d00'00"e" (example) and press ok, after your done with that, you can start your line, first imput the distance, then press the tab key untill you get it to the angle imput. enter the angle as listed by the ILC and you should be good to go.

ohh, make sure your line is facing to the right as your drawing, or it will put it at the wrong angle.
