My objective is to have a schematic set created from a user input. I need to automate this such that the user enters numbers and letters from drop menus, (part number is alpha-numeric, each representing voltage, horsepower, motor count, etc,) and have the drawing set created. Reading up on this, I know I still could use VBA, but as that is going to fade into non-existence soon, replaced by .net, I would love to go ahead and create it using .net. Any suggestions as to a good book to start this? I really know nothing about it, but need to learn. I can find lots of books on visual studio, but somehow I need to know how to interface it with ACAD at the same time! Any suggestions would be most welcome.
thanks!

I've started to learn vb.net using this book:
"Vb.Net programming for AutoCAD Customization"
written by Jerry Winters, it's enough for the good start
Thanks Jerry
