    Non-Attribute Block Create VBA Help Needed

    Thanks. I figured out my "can't delete problem. I had it "grabbed" earlier in the code, so it was "referenced". Anyway, I'll read the thread you posted to educate myself anyway. The code you posted makes sense and works. I tried to check the Blocks Collection for the block, before I deleted it...

    Non-Attribute Block Create VBA Help Needed

    Okay, if I created a Block and inserted it and wish to redefine the block, how do I delete it? I treid this: ThisDrawing.Blocks.Item("TextBlock").Delete and it says it is referenced. I deleted it manually (so I didn't write code to remove it from the drawing) first. Any ideas on how to...

    Non-Attribute Block Create VBA Help Needed

    I think I can look into that. I assume that if they want the coordinates "stacked", that I would use MText and "stack" them, or use individual text strings. If they don't want them "stacked", it doesn't matter. If "stacked", I'll put that string in first, and then align the Control Point string...

    Non-Attribute Block Create VBA Help Needed

    I'm basically starting from scratch. I have all the data in "memory" from the database, and the linking back and forth to the DB is all done. I just got to draw the boxes and put text in them. Sounded easy, but it gets hard for my brain when I start thinking about text height and where 0,0 is...

    Non-Attribute Block Create VBA Help Needed

    Hopefully this is a good place for this question. Using VBA, I need to create an AutoCAD Block on my drawing. The Block doesn't exist, thus the create part. I need to create two columns of data (a grid so to speak). The first column is a control point number, the second column has the...

    snagit and Photoshop

    I never liked SnagIt, so I use Irfanview for this purpose, and it is free. Irfanview will upsize an image and keep it kind of pretty, unless you go far, but I agree with Zoddman, if you're making it smaller, and SnagIt is making uglier at the same time, you're not doing it right, or SnagIt just...

    Returning to a Previous Form

    Thaks for the help. I am off and running now...and LISP is still good for a lot of stuff, and we don't use Bulgarians. We use different nationalities with the same pirated copies of software.

    Returning to a Previous Form

    Kind of a stupid question maybe, but that is okay, as I am stumped. I am using VBA inside AutoCAD, but should be similar to using it in others...? I have a Main form that opens, and I do stuff, and end up Hiding the Main form, and using a Child form. When I'm done with the Child, I want to go...
