Yes most definitely, but this lisp would work no matter what version of Acad wouldn't it? So for those who are not fortunate enough to have Civil 3D it would be an option.

Yes, that is correct.

Ah shoot. I always forget to add (vl-load-com) since I have that set in my acad.lsp file. Just add that to the beginning of the lisp and it will be good to go.

hmm, I cannot duplicate that error. I used this routine previously in 2007 without a problem. This PC only has Acad2002 on it and it works fine. I will get on a C3D2008 machine in a bit to see if it 2008 specific.

Could you post a small portion of the drawing this is occurring in?

[dfarris75]

As you wish.

[dfarris75]

OK I tried it again in the portion I clipped for you and it worked. Maybe it was because I reloaded the app on top of already having it loaded as opposed to unloading it and then reloading it???

[Jeff_M]

possible.....Have you closed & re-opened the original drawing? Doing so will clear any stray variables left over from any crash of my routine and should allow it to work.
