Topic: *ANSWERED* Is a save required

[Ron Heigh]

Is there a variable I can check to see if a drawing needs to be saved before closing it?

[Ron Heigh]

Found It

Code: [Select]

DBMOD System Variable Concepts Procedures Reference
(Read-only)
Type: Integer
Not saved
Indicates the drawing modification status using bitcode. The value is the sum of the following:

1  Object database modified
4  Database variable modified
8  Window modified
16  View modified

AutoCAD resets the DBMOD value to 0 when you save the drawing.
