toolbar button macro to open file

[dciadmin]

Would like to create a couple of buttons on a toolbar that when clicked will open up a predetermined file.

The button only needs to open up the file listed in the macro with no user prompts but I cannot seem to get it to work. I am using AutoCad 2002.

Something like .... ^c^c^cfiledia 0 open F:/adwg/test.dwg

Can someone tell me the proper syntax for doing this? I have tried multiple variations.

Thanks for your help,

dciadmin

i am not sure but I think you may need to have the macro call a lisp routine containing the path and file name.

try this:

(command "vbastmt" "AcadApplication.Documents.Open \"C:/Drawings/Mydrawing.dwg\"&quot
