'm trying to connect to the existing ACAD 2006 instance from a VB.net project using the com interop object.

I'm using the following code:

Dim myApp As AcadApplication
myApp = GetObject(, "Autocad.Application")
myApp.Visible = True

The code keeps returning a NEW instance of ACAD. I want to tap into the EXISTING instance.

Can someone tell me what's wrong?

thanks,
mark c.

what do you have to reference to make this work? I am totally new to AutoCAD and I can't get even this little launch code to work.

Thanx
