Task Scheduling

Am trying to extract data out of AutoCAD Specific drawing at a particular date and time. And this project am doing from quite long time. But the problem is how can i specify time and date to autocad and at that particular time it has to extract data. My current code is in VB.net where i am manually specifying the file, yet its taking the autocad template as its source

 

 

Dim Files() As String

Dim Path As String = "D:\Cad Drawings"
Dim DiffClass As New Class1
Dim acDocMgr As DocumentCollection = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager

Dim CurrentFileCount As Integer = 0


Files = Directory.GetFiles(Path, "*.dwg", SearchOption.AllDirectories)
For i As Integer = 0 To Files.Length - 1
Dim CurrentFile As String = Files(i)
If CurrentFile.Contains("Drawing") Or CurrentFile.Contains("DWG") Then
If CurrentFile.Substring(CurrentFile.LastIndexOf(".") + 1) = "dwg" Then

acDocMgr.Open(CurrentFile, False)

 

 

Till here i do operation and at certain time i open dwg and extract data. 

 

Is there any option to do so.

 

 

With Warm Regards

Amit

Hi Amit,

 

Your question is not very clear.

What do you mean by "extracting data at a particular date and time" ?

Hi,

 

May be you can add a trigger on some of the save database events (BeginSave or SaveComplete), and set the autosave to a given period, but this need another monitor on the Autosave variable (SAVETIME) in order to avoid user changes.
