The BeginQuit event
« on: June 05, 2005, 08:01:31 AM »
Morning Folks,

I’m desperately trying to get into VBA as quick as possible, so I’m not depending on my lisp skills only.

I need to understand how the “BeginQuit” Handler works, since I write a VBA program that must start when acad quits.

Anybody out there who can help??

Hi , Bernd

I suppose you mean the BeginClose event for a document.
"BeginQuit" is not availeble in vba

If you open the VBA IDE (left Alt-F11)
you'll see ThisDrawing in your project browser. double click it and place this code:

Option Explicit
Code: [Select]

Private Sub AcadDocument_BeginClose()

'do your stuff

End Sub


This will fire just before the document is closed. Acad itself will remain running.

I'm searching for a event that fires when Acad is shut down. End of the day, drafter goes home and has to fill in a form.

Are you sure there is no VBA event for? I know that there is no vlisp event for in A2002, in 2006 it works with the command reactor for quit, but in my company we change only next year, so i need something for A2002.

Decent & Bernd, for both of your benefit here is a snip from the VBA Developer Reference in R2002

Triggered just before an AutoCAD session ends or a document closes.

Thanks a lot, that approach works.
