Carlson Survey Points

I use Survey to prepare stakeout plots for survey field crews showing proposed stakeout points. Invariably there is the need to drag these points out with a leader for clarity. I know there is the automated tool to do this also (fix point attribute overlaps) and it is awesome. The problem is if I pull the point using the "move point attributes with leader" command or using the automated option all the attributes are dropped (desc. and elev.) except the point number. If I attempt to move it again the point number and usually the leader disappear as well. This does not happen in 6.6 so I need to jump back and forth between versions quite frequently.
