GPS'd fire hydrant locations. The GPS points were exported to shapfiles and using Data Connect, these points locate correctly in Map (using version 2009). The points have default styling.color, shape.and I want to use a CAD block of a fire hydrant to symbolize the points instead of the default square. Is this possible?

Button brings me to the folder located at C://Program Files/AutoCAD Map 3D 2009/Sample/Symbols. There are 13 DWGs in this folder all called 'Map - something.dwg' like 'Map - electric.dwg' or 'Map - water.dwg. I can open any of these DWGs and they all provide multiple symbols to choose from in the 'Select a Symbol' dialog box. However, none of these DWGs contain a symbol for a fire hydrant.
What other folders can be navigated to, in order to find other blocks? Can other CAD blocks be used as shapefile symbolization or does the prefix 'Map - xxx' in this folder mean that only these specific drawings will open for shapefile symbolization?

You can use that same icon to browse to any dwg file for a block to use. If you have a block inserted into another dwg you can 'pull' the block from that dwg to use as a symbol. I have two or three dwgs with nothing but blocks in that I'll pull a sybmol from to use with the FDO styles shp,sdf,sql oracle.

Fire equipment is used for fire fighting by trained fire fighters, or a user at the scene of a fire. There are a number of different kinds of fire fighting equipment available depending on the methods used, purpose, user and location. They also vary in types, capacity, size, quality, duration of intended use, type of fire risk involved, manual or automated and many other criteria.
Fire fighting equipment ranges from a fire fighters gear to fitted systems in a building to fire extinguishers and communication equipment of a wide variety. Posts navigation.
