Hi all,

I need to know if there is a variable to set
than when i QSAVE the drawing it will save in another release ?

This saves 2004 drawings.

Code: [Select]

(setenv "DefaultFormatForSave" "24")

This saves 2000 drawings.

Code: [Select]

(setenv "DefaultFormatForSave" "c")

I tested it a little more and the hexadecimal values change.....so it might not work.

Andrea,

When FILEDIA is set to 0 (zero), SAVEAS displays the following prompts on the command line.

Current file format: current

Enter file format [2000(LT2000)/2004/Standards/DXF/Template] <2004>:

Enter an option or press ENTER

Save drawing as <current>:  Enter a name or press ENTER

Maybe you can work with this?

Tools > Options... > Open and save
In the "File Save" you can set the same values as in the "save as" from the file menu.
I used this when working for a customer and he asked all the models in dxf format.

Have you tried ...

Code: [Select]

(vla-put-saveastype
    (vla-get-opensave
        (vla-get-preferences
            (vlax-get-acad-object)
        )
    )    
    code
)

Codes ...

acR12_DXF        AutoCAD Release12/LT2 DXF (*.dxf)

ac2000_dwg       AutoCAD 2000 DWG (*.dwg)

ac2000_dxf       AutoCAD 2000 DXF (*.dxf)

ac2000_Template  AutoCAD 2000 Drawing Template File (*.dwt)

ac2004_dwg       AutoCAD 2004 DWG (*.dwg)

ac2004_dxf       AutoCAD 2004 DXF (*.dxf)

ac2004_Template  AutoCAD 2004 Drawing Template File (*.dwt)

acNative         A synonym for the current drawing release
                 format. If you want your application to save
                 the drawing in the format of whatever version
                 of AutoCAD the application is running on,
                 then use the acNative format.
