Labels in Water Utility Network Editing template

[JoshWhite]

I am having some minor issues with labelling.  In the Water Utility Network Editing map the labels for utility lines typically take the form of Diameter Abbreviated material.  (8" PVC).  When I copy the labelling expression directly from the template into my own map, I suddenly end up with 8"" Polyvinyl Chloride.  This has something to do with the Coded Value Domain.  I would prefer to use the shortened version but can't figure out how this is done.  By the way, I also corrected the additional quotes in my label so there isn't a double quote (8" instead of 8"").  I guess I could use the Abbreviate label feature of Maplex and could create an abbreviation dictionary but it doesn't appear that was needed in the template. The attached image shows that the full label is a bit overpowering at 1:1128. [ATTACH=CONFIG]19553[/ATTACH]

I figured out the issue on my own.  There is a checkbox in the expression dialog box that asks if you want to Display coded value description.  Unchecking allows my labels to go from Polyvinyl Chloride to PVC.  I thought I'd post this in case others have run into this before.  For those layers that I did drag and drop directly from the template, this was not the issue.  I've seen this in other places before and this will greatly help me.
