Hi Todd, How are you doing? Hope this is the right thread to post this question. Do you know how to export automatically a JPG/WMF file from AutoCAD. I tried this code, but it gives an failure and on internet/google we're no good examples AutoCAD.AcadApplication.ActiveDocument.Export ("c:\"...

Hi Todd, That's really cool (My dad is a couple of years older, I mean 43 but he never say cool :o) so helping 19year old students keeps you young :-D) It works amazing fast, I think the whole proces, opening AutoCAD, the good drawing, checking how much prints he must make, saving and closing...

Hay Todd, I made it working: Y = "C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2004\acad.exe /b Import " & [Forms]![AutoCAD Updater]![Tekst31] Just the space between the /b and Import It works great!!!! Thanks!!!!! Han

Hi Todd, This is so weird, I try it several times with several quotes but it haven't the good effect... I have a better solution. How can I run the script automatically on startup? (so no switches) Then I load the original script: Y = "C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2004\acad.exe" &...

Hi Todd, And just another doublepost :o) we make steps further, it gives now the following error: (exactly) - " import C:\AutoCAD\Tekeningen\250000.dwg" - What is chr(34)? TIF Han

Hi Todd, That was what we called a 'doublepost' :o) Does it work by you? It gives by me still the same error. TIF Han

Hi Todd, Hopefully this time I'm smart :o) Dim X, Y Y = Chr(34) & "C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2004\acad.exe" & Chr(34) & " /b " & Chr(34) & "import" & Chr(34) & [Forms]![AutoCAD Updater]![Tekst31] X = Shell(Y, 1) End Function I tried it like this way but it gives the same error...

Hi Todd, Oops I THOUGH I was smart :o) So there's no solution from my side TIF Han

Hi Todd, I have the solution: AutoCAD.AcadApplication.RunMacro ("acad.dvb!import") When I run it separatelly it works, cause else AutoCAD is opening. Do you know the code for waiting/delay of 6 seconds, or something? TIF Han

Hi Todd, I guess you're the one with the most knowlegde at AutoCAD customazium (hope I spell it correct :)) How old/young are you? I had to say I learned a lot in the past period. You're solution is perfectly working in the shortcut. (I edit the scriptfile to add a , to simultain an enter)...

Hi Todd, Sorry for my bad explanation about the script. This is what the script do: -import -save -exit I loaded the script in acad.dvb like also the export script. Now I want a shortcut so autocad start automatically the script, saves and exit. So it's not allowed to run on every startup. I...

Hi Todd, Do you know how to handle the switch /b so the script will run automatically. I can load the script when AutoCAD is openening, but the script will shutdown AutoCAD when it print and saved How can I turn of that compression? TIF Han

Hi Todd, I'm playing with my little program and I've 2 questions: - I start AutoCAD with the following code: Y = "C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2004\acad.exe /nologo " & [Forms]![Formulier1]![Tekst31] The're is also a switch to start automatically a script: /b with the scriptname. I use the script...

Hi Todd, It's in the Netherlands 21:38 and with a beer you create the best ideas :) Maybe I can make a macro what runs the printingprogram. Example: -Open autocad -Print code loop=copies Is this possible? TIF Han
