- The Ducks ended that series with Ottawa before I even had a chance to finish the Borehole "series". I was hoping for at least a 7 game series.
Before I get back to describing the second method for managing Borehole data, I wanted to share a diagnostic tool that you may find useful at some point. During Friday's webcast someone asked about a message ” *Warning* Multiply owned object, handle "XXXX". Himanshu Gohel (Software Engineer, Civil 3D - I am sure you have seen him on the Civil 3D Newsgroup) suggested that we use the tool called “DbView” which is an arx utility that lets you type in an object handle and find out what the entity is. Shaan Hurley posted this utility on his blog. This utility will give you some guidance as to the type of object that is reporting a warning.
We were able to narrow down the search to some of the label styles. I have seen that other users are running into this on the news group so we’ll continue to research and determine the root cause of this warning.
Just wanted to repost a link to this utility – at some point you may find it useful.

Credit where it's due...Jason Hickey pointed me to DbView in one of his newsgroup posts a while ago.
