Hi, You ask a question with a minimum of a hundred billion possible answers. You get an offer of help and reject it. It's quite clear from your alias that you simply trying to be a nuisance. -- Regards Laurie Comerford www.cadapps.com.au "diAb0Lo" wrote in message news:5554604.1084852650816.JavaMail.jive@jiveforum2.autodesk.com... > Thanks for your help, fool

yea, I can't say as though I've ever had a response like that - not on this site anyway. Maybe a spirted debate every now and then with valid points being brought up by both paties but never anything childish and malicious as posted above. I'm not sure what your after but I think you'll find most people that belong to this forum are above such things and won't be baited into a pissing match.

It seems the obvious problm is a "chair 2 keyboard" interface problem. IDispatch seems to have been impelemented to Imouth instead of the vTable.

Just .02

I'm not defending this guy Diabolo, but the response he got from you: Let see this code - 'you designed yourself' I would say it sounds more like a challenge than a helpful reply. I'd say you had it coming, but judging by the answer this Diabolo guy seems very polite. -- Saludos, Ing.

Ok i will try to explain what my VB application exactly does. It opens AutoCAD and create toolbars to insert some blocks. In some cases, when i try to insert any block using some snap object helps, AutoCAD crashes. Why?
PD: I try one by one snap helps and it crashes when using Extension help....

Another question, I'd like to know if possible how to render a drawing using VBA

[Anonymous]

Here's a cutdown version of a routine I have for rendering. I don't have time to go into detailed explanations, but most of this stuff was told to me on this forum so you should be able to Google for it. In general see the Help for the matlib and rmat commands.
[pre]
Private Sub ApplyMaterials()
ThisDrawing.SendCommand "(if (not (member ""acrender.arx"" (arx))) (arxload ""acrender.arx""))" & vbCr ' Load
ThisDrawing.SendCommand "(c:matlib ""I"" ""BROWN BRICK"" """ & Replace(Application.Path, "\", "/") & "/Support/render.mli"")" & vbCr ' Import
ThisDrawing.SendCommand "(c:rmat ""M"" ""BROWN BRICK"" ""STANDARD"" nil nil '(""BRNBRICK.TGA"" nil nil (960.0 540.0)))" & vbCr ' Modify
ThisDrawing.SendCommand "(c:rmat ""A"" ""BROWN BRICK"" 16)" & vbCr ' Attach
ThisDrawing.SendCommand "(c:rmat ""N"" ""SPECIAL"" ""STANDARD"" nil nil '(""MyCreation.bmp"" 1.0 nil (2000.0 2000.0)))" & vbCr ' New
ThisDrawing.SendCommand "(c:rmat ""A"" ""SPECIAL"" ""Batten"")" & vbCr ' Attach
End Sub

All I did was ask to see his code - in his words....

I think you're going to have to post some of your code in order for anyone to see what might be causing the crash. In particular the section you're referring to when you say "snap object helps" thanks, Kevin "diAb0Lo" wrote in message news:19487298.1084943636604.JavaMail.jive@jiveforum2.autodesk.com... > Ok i will try to explain what my VB application exactly does.

i mean OSNAP points. You'll see I have an application which executes AutoCAD. This application creates toolbars for inserting blocks. These blocks are .DWG files, but i need attributes, so i create a new block called NAMEFILE + "TEMP". When i try to build a project (a lot of blocks) and i use the OSNAP points like midpoint, endpoint, etc... AutoCAD crashes. It just occurs when I execute ACAD from my application. I realize that if i open AutoCAD normally, and use the project file (DWG) nothing happens.
What could be happening?
