  2. Click the Insert tab. In the Insertion Elevation section, select Fixed elevation, verify that the Fixed elevation is 0 (zero) m.

  3. Click the Text tab. Select the Automatic Leaders check box and then click OK.

    Use the following step to list information about the existing point elevation.

  4. Enter LIST, and then select point number 758 and press ENTER.
