geogeek Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I'm getting better with using GIS in CAD. Right now I'm at a dead end with the MapExport to FDO using an ArcSDE connection to an existing SDE connection. After selecting my ArcSDE connection, Export: Connection to ArcSDE dialog pops up, I can't see my feture objects that are connected on the map. I get the error :invalid characters in name. No feature class appears in the drop down. I feel like I'm close to making this work. When I click on Okay without any feature class selected A Map Export window pops out that is empty.

Murph_map Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 The mapexport is for AutoCAD entities only if you have FDO features you want in your ArcSDE database you need to use Bulk Copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geogeek Posted October 27, 2012 Author Share Posted October 27, 2012 I am exporting ACAD entities. I selected the tool Export to FDO which includes export to ArcSDE. The instructions are documented in this help section for Autocad Map 3D 2013: http://docs.autodesk.com/MAP/2010/ENU/AutoCAD%20Map%203D%202010%20User%20Documentation/HTML%20Help/index.html?url=WS1a9193826455f5ff91edbc10e17b18b75-7f76-procedure.htm,topicNumber=d0e124796 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
