    InterOp Bewilderment!

    I'm working on a project in vb.net that needs to automate / connect with acad versions 2000 through 2006. So as I understand it, the COM interop object is the best way to go fro the flexibility.

    As I've worked along, I've built up several "references" that I'm not sure I understand:

    Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common

    Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop

    Interop.Autocad

    I'm not sure what the last one does - I don't remember adding it. Does anyone recognise it?

    When viewing the references in the object browser, they seem to list

    name
    name&class (this is greyed out, but displays with tree)

    ie:
    AcadApplication
    + AcadApplicationClass (greyed out)


    Why does everything have a "Class" added to it, and why is it greyed out?

    thanks,
    mark c.
