AutoCAD allows you to enter bearings as an angle, in the format :@distance<angle
use "d" after degrees, apostrophe after minutes, quote after seconds Use "line" command, pick a start point, then for next point enter: @16.57<n21d47'e and continue with other lines around the lot hope this helps! |

Just to give you a little background on what you're doing, serjuk, it is a system or method of describing land called Metes & Bounds.
I just learned of it myself a couple months back and thought it was very interesting. Good Luck!  |
