api commands

[gcsjlewis]

I am looking for a little guidance here.  I have this code, that generates a report and saves it to my computer

(c:wd_bompnlr (list 1 1 "" 31 0 "ASC" "c:\\documents and settings\\jlewis\\application data\\autocad electrical 2011\\R18.1\\enu\\support\\user\\bompnl" "c:\\bak" nil))

However, i do not want to save it to my computer i want it inserted into my drawing.  Reading a couple of posts here and there, it pointed me to use this command instead

 (c:ace_auto_rpt rgfnam firstdnam templatenam)

However, i do not understand what the parameters actually are. 

Any help would be very much appreciated!!

Hi manamalewis,

I'm not an "AutoCAD Electrical" guy, but I think not to be possible with the 

(c:ace_auto_rpt rgfnam firstdnam templatenam), insert the report into your drawing, it will create a .SET or a .RGF file, was what I understood here...

Maybe with the

(c:wd_bompnlr (list 1 1 "" 31 0 "ASC" "c:\\documents and settings\\jlewis\\application data\\autocad electrical 2011\\R18.\\enu\\support\\user\\bompnl" "c:\\bak" nil))

method, or even with the other one, after creating the report file, and if it is a text file, you can access the file and read / write the report into your dwg...

HTH
