Never happened to me.
When in doubt shut ACAD down and restart.

Do it occur again?

Hi CAB,

Thank you for reply, but..

1. Restart Autocad 07 ==> Error still happened.
next...
2. Restart Windows ===> Errror STILL HAPPENED.
next...
3. Autocad 2009 ===>> Error still happened
next...
4. Restart Autocad 2009  ===> fortunately Error STILL HAPPENED. (same error)

Wow,
Can you post that code segment that will not format?

i had the similar once.
something was wrong with quoted lists as far as i remember.
i think i had to change '(1 2 3) to (quote (1 2 3))

Hi VOVKA,

You're right. After i changed the code from:

Code: [Select]

(setq header '("No." "Nama" "Luas (m²)" "Keliling (m')" "Kode" "Panjang (m')"))

To :

Code: [Select]

(setq header (quote ("No." "Nama" "Luas (m²)" "Keliling (m')" "Kode" "Panjang (m')")))

then format selection, everything works well.
I don't know why.
Is there any explanation about that?
Thank you Vovka.

Hi CAB, please try with another cad version. May be this error does have any relationship with IDE version, who knows.
Thank you CAB.

I'm guessing its because the list contains a quote (within the string) perhaps?

Works OK in ACAD2000
Did you try this version?

Code: [Select]

(setq header (list "No." "Nama" "Luas (m²)" "Keliling (m')" "Kode" "Panjang (m')"))

[CAB]

Lee you are correct, the ' should be char 185 but is a quote mark.
Good eye

All options work fine in 2009.

Hi Lee mac,

Code: [Select]

(setq header '("No." "Nama" "Luas (m²)" "Keliling (m)" "Kode" "Panjang (m)"))

There is no ' (quote) within string, but still error when formating code (A07).

All options work fine in 2009.

Alan, did you try with above code?

CAB, Yes it works.

Thank you for all replies.
