    bad argument type stringp nil

    I have a problem in a Novell 4.11 network install running on the
    server using a network deployment/setup scheme as detailed in the
    installation manual.

    I changed the "start in" directory for the shortcut to: C:\ACAD2000 to point
    to the local client directory but I still get the same error.

    This problem also occurres in the Architectual Desktop install that I just
    did yesterday.

    Any help would be appreciated...

    Thanks

    p.s Supplying more than one possible solution to this problem would
    expedite the solution to this problem. Everyone keeps giving one little
    solution, then I have to wait for a couple of days for another solution to
    try. Lets get a little more in-depth.

    worth while, as our local rep. despite his title as an "Application

    This morning I replaced ALL paths specified in the Tools/Options screen to
    Mapped Drive Paths instead of the original UNC paths that were determined by
    the Install process, and I eliminated 2 of the 3 Bad argument type stringp
    nil errors. This is what I am now getting when I open a new drawing:

    Regenerating model.
    ; error: bad argument type: stringp nil
    AutoCAD menu utilities loaded.

    Any ideas what could be causing this one error. This is still a "clean"
    install - nothing has been changed from the default install settings as far
    as additional modules being loaded at startup etc.

    Thanks
