How to execute a form

[hoja]

Hello, can anyone give me a link to some info on how to execute a simple form saved as a .dvb file in autocad.

I created a simple form in vba, but I don't know how to execute it when in Autocad!! I would like to execute from either the command line or by creating a drop down menu in autocad.....any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you

Hi Rod,

In a module, or in the Thisdrawing object of the VBAIDE, create a sub, that calls your form something like this:

Public Sub Main
 Load UserForm1
 UserForm1.Show
End Sub

Thank you very much Todd....this works, but is there a way to execute the form straight from the command line by typing the name of the .dvb file maybe. Because this way I have to type _vbarun and then select the macro from the window and then hit RUN....I am trying to cut down on the steps. Would this be possible, thank you

Hi Rod,

Yep...

[ul]
[li] Type "-vbarun" at the command line (no quotes and don't forget the dash (-)). [/li]
[li] Then type "Main" (again, no quotes). [/li]
[/ul]
