# To edit point coordinate records

You can use the Point manager to edit the coordinates of imported or keyed in points.

If you change the name or coordinates of a record, or delete a point or feature record, the positions of other records that rely on that record could change or disappear. Make sure you have read the topic Point record changes: effects on other points and you understand the impact of your changes before you make them.

1. Tap and select Job data / Point manager.

2. Tap the record or use the arrow keys to select it.

   You cannot edit the coordinates of:

   - raw observations
   - points in linked files
   - a range of records at one time
3. Tap Edit and then select Coordinates.

4. Edit the coordinates.

5. To change the search class for a keyed in point from Normal to Control, select the Control point check box. To change the search class from Control to Normal, clear the check box.

6. Tap OK.

   Details of changes made are automatically saved to the Note record.
