Recover Drawing

[peteh]

Does anyone have any vb.net code to recover an AutoCAD 2013 drawing?

Hi,

At present there is no programmatic way of recovering the drawing files. One method is to create a script file which can recover the drawing file and running the script through the code.

Script file could be like

Recover

c:\temp\test.scr

VB.net code

<CommandMethod("testrecover", CommandFlags.Session)> _

   Sub testrecover()

        Dim scriptPath As String = "c:\\temp\\recover.scr"

        Dim oApp As AcadApplication = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.AcadApplication

        oApp.ActiveDocument.SendCommand("(command ""script"" """ & scriptPath & """)" & vbCrLf)

    End Sub

I can make this work...  thank you.
