Simple Visual Basic.net Application using acmgd.dll & acdbmgd.dll

[isocam]

I need a simple Visual Basic.net Application using acmgd.dll & acdbmgd.dll files that can send a simple text string to the autocad command line.

I am using AutoCAD 2009 but I need to also do the same for AutoCAD LT 2009.

Can anybody tell me if it is possible?

Just for testing!!!

If I can send "hello" that would be a start point for me to modify the code.

Regards

        Dim ed As Editor =
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor
       
ed.WriteMessage("Hello, AutoCAD!")
    End Sub

Hi Joe,

Many thanks for your reply!!!

Can you please do me a favour?

Can you please take a quick look at the following code to see what I am doing wrong.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.EditorInput
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime



Public Class Form1
Public Shared Sub Hello()
Dim ed As Editor = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor()

ed.WriteMessage("Hello, AutoCAD!")
End Sub
End Class
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am trying (as a test) to send text to autocad lt 2009 command line.

Many thanks

You can't use .NET programs in AutoCAD LT.

Just in case by "
size=3>Visual Basic.net Application" you mean a stand-alone win form app:
you cannot use acmgd.dll and acdbmgd.dll in that type of
application.

AutoCAD LT cannot be automated in this
manner.
