and my custom palette button appears to work, but when prompted with
33-
and I type in "6703"
to create my block name "33-6703" (whis IS in that folder)
i get ....

Probably changed the way AutoCAD interacts with the command line version of INSERT. Just move to Revit and you'll be all set. No more worries. ;)

NOW YOU ARE JUST TAUNTING ME...
they would not listen over a year ago when I told them we needed to be on subscription.. and our new computers were held up for 4 months because we were not..
on subscription...
and my new cad support person [because we are now ON subscription] just happens to be the person I suggested we stick with when they chose to NOT GO ON SUBSCRIPTION....
YEH. and the training I said we should get BEFORE the upgrade...
yeh.. now happening next month..
if we can get approval for it before she gets all booked up..
so yeh.. they will really listen when I suggest revit. ...

Now they are not working again... well unless the specific block is already in the drawing...grrrr....
I have set my options to include those folders in my search paths...
tried adding the \ back... (fail..but figured I would try)
it is simple.. It baffles me why it wont work

What happens with the double \\ when you open AutoCAD, start a new drawing then try the command?
What happens with a single \ when you open AutoCAD, start a new drawing then try the command?
Just trying to rule out the chance of anything interfering. Maybe there's some other home-grown command that is redefining the insert command? Or...... I don't know. :/
-
the only other custom commands I have set up are my paint plan line/layer
they look like this
^C^C-LAYER;S;CP-WP-CH1_RED;;^C^CPLINE;\W;3;3;
-
after command 'fails'
Press F2
read command history
what if anything is it telling you there?
like $$$$.dwg not found, block name invalid, black licorice is poison
anything?

It works fine for me with the missing forward slash AND the double back slash.

I should say "the missing forward slash ADDED...".
