OK, after talking with Adam, and John Evers, (Shawn Billings is on vacation, to either the Bahamas, or Alaska, Just a wild guess.... I don't know!, big grin good on him!) I found out that: When you use the ACAD (Carlson) command, wblock, and then select lines, it MAKES a block at the target location, in my case on my thumb drive, which is called drive J. And, then I nested it into the directory I wanted.
When you use the LS with the Thumb Drive in it, to IMPORT this line work, it EXPLODES this line work, and makes coordinates at the vertices of the line work.
FULL delete deletes these coordinates. PART does not. I wanted to do a FULL delete, and that is fine, IF you only use "ACCEPT AS" in stake out, you are fine. IF you use stake out with a piggy back coord, where it got staked, it can delete these.
I was safe, because I only do ACCEPT AS.
Also, when importing line work, PUT IT ON ANOTHER PAGE, that is not in use. This will HELP keep all things separated. Also, IF you are working with localized coords, and your linework is local, then this new page MUST be set to that same local coord system.
Then, you can delete linework, with less worries. IF you draw a line, between two points, in the LS, using the native draw program, and then delete that line, you run the risk of deleting the POINTS along with that line. This can delete SURVEY POINTS inadvertently. I personally think it should be BLOCKED from deleting any SURVEY or DESIGN points, at ALL times, when working with and deleting lines. Deleting SURVEY and DESIGN points can get you into trouble.
Ever since I bought the Javad, I have been on a mission to SIMPLIFY it. (I'm not sure that the development crew appreciates this!) Every time great new features come along, it seems that complexification comes along with it. I AM an expert OVER-COMPLEXIFIER, on my surveys. Anybody who has seen one of them, knows. Here, I'll post a recent one:
Anyhow, once I learn the track, I generally can run with it. I still want a MID point maker, that is ultra simple. On the INVERSE screen. Input 2 points into inverse, and it displays the inverse. Then, off to the side, is a little button. MID. Press that, and it makes a mid point between those.
Thank you all for making this fantastic survey machine. It's nicer than a 747.
