@@HLPDIRECTION
----------------------------------------
Enter '1' for MICRO CADAM to DXF file translation. This process gets a
MICRO CADAM model, extracts all the elements from the database, and builds a
DXF file representing the same model.

Enter '2' for DXF file to MICRO CADAM model translation.  This process takes
a DXF file and builds a MICRO CADAM model by mapping DXF elements into the
MICRO CADAM database.
----------------------------------------
@@HLPBRKDIM
----------------------------------------
Enter 'N' to maintain the dimension as a single complete entity.

Enter 'Y' to break up dimension geometry into individual components.  For 
example, a single dimension could be broken up into the individual lines,
curves and text that represent that dimension.  Breaking up the dimension 
allows a user to selectively erase parts of the dimension.
----------------------------------------
@@HLPPOLY2LIN
----------------------------------------
Enter 'N' to maintain the DXF polyline as a single entity after it is
converted to a MICRO CADAM element.

Enter 'Y' to break up a DXF polyline entity into individual MICRO CADAM line
segments.  Breaking up the polyline allows a user to selectively erase
portions of the polyline after it is converted to a MICRO CADAM drawing.
----------------------------------------
@@HLPDRIVE
----------------------------------------
Enter the drive that has the MICRO CADAM system installed which you
are either getting a drawing from or sending a drawing to.

NOTE: There must be a disk inserted if the selected drive is a floppy
diskette drive.
----------------------------------------
@@HLPDXFNAME
----------------------------------------
Enter the name of a DXF file.

DXF file names are 8 character DOS file names.  You are allowed to
qualify any DXF file name with a full pathname and/or drive letter.  For
example, '\\MCADAM\\DXF\\FILE1' or 'A:\\DISK1\\DXFNAME' are valid entries.
You should not use the '.DXF' extension, it is assumed in all cases.

Up to 10 files can be translated at a time.

NOTE: If a target DXF file name (MC --> DXF only) is not specified, a default
name will be chosen for you based on the source MICRO CADAM DRAWING name.

Enter the name of the MICRO CADAM group. 
The MICRO CADAM group name may consist of up to four alpha-numeric characters.
----------------------------------------
@@HLPUSER
----------------------------------------
Enter the name of the MICRO CADAM user.
The user name may consist of up to six alpha-numeric characters.
----------------------------------------
@@HLPMCNAMES
----------------------------------------
Enter the name of a MICRO CADAM drawing model.

The model name consists of a part number (PN), of up to sixteen
alpha-numeric characters, followed by a comma and then by a find number (FN),
 of up to four alpha-numeric characters.
You may also enter the name with the PN beginning in the 17th column if you
do not use a comma.

Valid drawing names:

Up to 10 drawings can be translated at one time.

NOTE: If a target MICRO CADAM drawing name (DXF --> MC only) is not specified,
 a default name will be chosen for you based on the source DXF file name.

@@HLPMCOVERITE
----------------------------------------
Key in 'Y' to overwrite any existing MICRO CADAM model(s).

If you key in 'N' when translating from DXF to a MICRO CADAM
model, and the target MICRO CADAM model already exists, the DXF file will not
be processed.  The original MICRO CADAM model will remain unchanged.
----------------------------------------
@@HLPDXFOVERITE
----------------------------------------
Key in 'Y' to overwrite any existing DXF file(s). 

If you key in 'N' when translating models from MICRO CADAM to DXF
and the target DXF file already exists with the same name, that DXF file will
not be overwritten.
----------------------------------------
@@HLPUNITS
----------------------------------------
Enter the desired units per inch value.

INCH ----------------------- for inches
FEET ------------------------- for feet
MM -------------------- for millimeters
CM -------------------- for centimeters
METER ---------------------- for meters
OTHER -------- for other units per inch

This value will be used during the MICRO CADAM model creation process to 
set the model units per inch. It can be any value greater than zero.

@@HLPBLKNM
----------------------------------------
Enter '1', '2' or '3' to specify method for naming blocks.

'1' Specifies that the DXF Block names be created from the Detail names or 
if the Detail name does not exist that the Detail number be used.

'2' Specifies that the last four characters of the CADAM Drawing name and 
the Detail number be used to create the DXF Block name.

'3' Specifies that the whole CADAM Drawing name, the Detail number and the 
Detail name (if present) be used to create the DXF Block name.

'Y' Specifies that the noshow entities will be translated.

'N' Specifies that the noshow entities will NOT be translated.
