May I use Lisp to open a new file in CAD 2004?

[Anonymous]

(command "open" "")........can not work

I have a lisp I want to run it on every DWG
Is there any good Lisp example?

thanks

You need to run a LISP inside many drawing files, without necessarily
opening each file yourself, and your LISP requires no user input?

Then create a simple SCRIPT file calling your lisp, then use the free
SCRIPTPRO utility that is part of Migration Assistance (either on your
product CD, or Autodesk's website), select the DWG files you want, then
select the script file.

HELP in AutoCAD explains script files.
