Plot Scripting in Acad 2000

Can someone help me get the correct syntax for creating a batch plot script
within Acad2000 please.
I have the following which works great on R14:

_OPEN "m:\Drawing Templates\Layout_Symbols\3801g.dwg" _PLOT EXTENTS 0 _QUIT
_Y
_NEW _Y

With this I used to be able to setup a dummy plot in Acad, then just run
this script and all drawings would be plotted with whatever defaults I used
in the dummy file............
How can I do the same thing in 2K...................??????????????????

Thanks
Dave

Dave, To see what you should put in your script, go (command "plot").....enter at the command line. This will do a command line version of the plot command and you can use the responses to construct your script from there.

I have tried that Peter.

The problems comes when I get to 'Enter a page
setup name <>'

I want to send a return to that as you can from the
command line, but can't figure out how to do it !

 

Thanks

Dave

 

P.S. You can also use the follwoing to invoke
commands only on the command line: -plot


style="BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px">
