LISP is available through a 3rd party add-on. See LT Toolkit at:
http://www.drcauto.com/
VBA... I don't know of any add-ons for it yet.
Plain AutoCAD drawings should pose no problems with it. Now when you start
talking about ADT and other "advanced" packagings of AutoCAD, I would
hesitate. These tend to use more custom objects and LT cannot use the
enablers like Volo View can. Now how much that would affect whatever you
want to do, I'm not sure.
Heck, just get the 30-day trail/demo from Autodesk and see what happens with
some of your drawings and things these folks might want to do.
Enjoy,
Stef
