Cube unknown in lisp, but works from Command line ACAD2012

[isbelldl]

I'm running AutoCAD 2012 (base version, but part of Mechanical install). Part of my .mnl file is set to run (command "cube" "off"). On one machine (Windows 7), it works fine. I'm temporarily on my laptop (Windows 8), & that portion no longer works.

If I type cube in the command line, it works fine. However, if I type (command "cube"), it says unknown command "CUBE".

Any ideas how to fix this?

I have to use "navvcube" in lisp.

Thanks, that was it. I'm still not sure why it worked on one machine considering that cube looks like it's just a shortcut for navvcube, but that seems to be the solution.

Glad that I could help. cheers.

Might be because CUBE is defined in the OOTB PGP file.
