Find a dwg file with Arch objectects, walls, doors etc.

[mdhutchinson]

How would I go about finding a drawing file in a set of folders that has AutoCAD Arch Walls, Doors, etc in it?

Possible via ObjectDXB?... I have some code, but not certain about how to look for AEC_WALL, AEC_DOOR, AEC_WINDOW etc.

Open each drawing. Get a selection set of all objects. Iterate thru the set and check to see if it is the type you want.

You can use something like this to test and see if the object in the selection set is a wall.

 (= "AEC_WALL"(cdr (assoc 0 (entget (setq eName (cadr obj))))))
