When I open any dwg, either older dwgs or dwgs created in 2019, when I close them and then go to reopen them
I am being prompted for dwg recovery everytime.
Anyone else have this issue or have a suggestion on why this is?

Is it a new thing in 2019?

Does it occur when you start a new 2019 template, save, and reopen?

Is this plain AutoCAD or a vertical app?

It is actually my save code. when i save the dwg with my customer save and i reopen the dwg, I get the recovery prompt.
I never had an issue with this code till now.

any suggestions?

Does the error occur with a previously saved drawing
or with a newly named drawing
or both ?

Update your code, or don't use it...does the Recovery Prompt go away IF you don't use the code you mention in the post I quoted?

it happens when i use my custom save command.
If i start a new file and save with my custom save command and close it and open it again. i get this recovery prompt
if i open an old file i get the recovery prompt.
If it run the recovery on any of these dwgs and save with the OOTB save command and reopen it. i get NO recovery prompt.

andrew: I meant to ask ;
What happens if you add Audit the drawing after you save it with your routine?

and, are you still using the same routine?

Andrew...

Why do you need the ver.20 check in the code?
What dwg-version are you saving your files to in R2019?

It's appears either no one here has R2019 or no one wants to try your code on their PC: are you simply trying to save your file in two locations at the same time?

FWIW, your code works as I would expect on my C3D2018 (don't have 2019 installed). No recovery messages, only creates the backup if C:\ACADBACK\ exists.

Lisp works fine here in R2019 as well: wonder what other settings Andrew.. has that we do not.
