Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Can anyone advise me what the MOSS part stands for? Whilst I have been dealing with Earthworks in civil engineering contracts for years, I’ve never stopped to think what MOSS means. Just curious. My internet hunt did not inform me.

Thanks Admin, but I did get that far. I even contacted a MOSS guru who has used MOSS for years prior to Infrasoft taking over (He’s now an MX guru - (old Moss)). He could not answer the question. My only hope is that this thread is not another As-Built-Critical-Path. AAAAAArrggghhh.

Gerry.

Gerry,

We came accross this...

Infrasoft, the one-time distributor, then owner of Moss System’s MOSS. Infrasoft’s MX product line includes a series of civil engineering applications for road design/renewal, railway engineering, site development, and landform design that run on AutoCAD, MicroSta-tion and stand-alone on Windows. One big selling point is that data can be moved seamlessly from one platform to another.

Not great, but it may offer some answers.

Regards.
