<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I had several responses to my question
about non-feature linked annotation:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">"I have an old, legacy sde layer
(parcels) with annotation that has been placed, is NOT feature linked,
and has no corresponding attribute to the underlying parcel layer. I need
to compare this annotation layer (well, the address part of it anyway),
with a point layer of addresses. I have a feeling this is something I would
do in Access, but I'm not on the right track. Does anyone have any suggestion
about how to work with these non-feature linked anno layers? Thanks
in advance-"</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks to Tripp Corbin & C. Henry
Depew for their suggestions. In the end, I went w/a workaround. I exported
the anno to a CAD layer, which put a point at each anno location.
>From there, it was just a matter of scrubbing the data to remove extra
anno & then doing a spatial join to get the parcel number w/the anno.
Thanks for all the help!</font>
