per vlisp help...
This is issue becuase the search feature in my 08 vlisp help is blank.
An object ID and a unique handle are both ways of referencing an object.
Thanks guys
In general, use a handle unless you plan to work with certain ObjectARX functions that require an object ID
Object Handles huh
is this third way of naming an object?
Do not get confused, in the functions description on the vlisp help, you will find more information (sometimes)
That quote is referring to HANDLE only.
do this if you can:
open the visual lisp editor, and in the visual lisp console type:
vla-get-objectid then highlight that function and click in the apropos button, then select again the
vla-get-objectid from that list and click on the ? mark button, and it will open the help for that function if available, then at the bottom, read the remarks...
HTH
