include line attributes when creating endpoints?

Hi, I've got a lot of closely spaced streamflows that I'm creating endpoints from using the Advanced Feature Creation command, and I'd like the endpoints to receive the attributes of the lines from which they were generated. Right now I'm copying the attributes back to the points from the lines, but they're so closely spaced that I'm not sure the end points are receiving the attributes from their original lines. Any chance of attributes automatically transferring from lines to the points generated from those lines?
Thanks for any help.

Oops, I see that all the attributes except the original feature's name get copied over--the name is the attribute I need to have attributed to the point. Any way to make that either an attribute that automatically gets copied, like LINE_NAME?
Thanks for your help. -
I've updated the creating of points from line features to add the line name as a LINE_NAME attribute to each point. I have placed new builds with the latest changes at the links below:
32-bit: http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper15.zip
64-bit: http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/global_mapper15_64bit.zip
Simply download the .zip file for the build that you are using and extract over your existing installation files. The likely locations to extract to are as follows:
32-bit: C:\Program Files (x86)\GlobalMapper15
64-bit: C:\Program Files\GlobalMapper15_64bit

For some reason, I'm not able to get the new build to include LINE_NAME as an attribute for new points spaced along a line. Attached is a workspace with the line sample I experimented with, with two endpoints I created using the new build.
Thanks for your help. -
Oops looks like I only added that if you are just creating a point from every vertex. I've updated it for creating points spaced along features too.
