I want to write a lisp routing that uses the F12 key to open a drawing, bind it, purge it, dwf it and then close it.

How do I define the F12 key?  do I write "F12" or is there a special code for it?

I hope this makes sense.

Why not use a macro for the commands and assign to the F12 key via you accelerator keys.

Function keys are modified in the ***ACCELERATORS portion of the MNS/MNU.
The format is:

["F12"]<whatevermacroyouwanttorun>

If you want it to run automatically, I'd suggest wrting a lisp function in your ACAD.lsp that does what you wish.  I'm not familiar with DWF, but the rest is relatively easy to program.
