what is the best way of keeping macros at hand but and not use memory on it
until they are needed.

(Like the autoload - feature for Autolisp)

I use things like this:

In the file ACAD.LSP:

(defun c:te ()(if (not (c:test)(load "TEST")(c:test))

1) the Autolisp file name is TEST.LSP
2) the line command is TEST (defun c:test () ..........)
3) TEST.LSP is in the search path
4) TE is not already defined in ACAD.PGP or elsewhere

I prefer 2 letter short cuts using left hand keys only leaving your right
hand for the mouse. My preference.

Sounds great. That would be my preference to.

I'll use it on some of our Lisp-routines
Can I do the same thing with visual basic-macros?

The Autoload in AutoCAD works too.
(AutoLoad "LispFile" '("Command"))

It's really good if there is more there one command in the lisp also
(AutoLoad "LispFile" '("Command1" "Command2" "Command3"))

It also works the same for Arx.
(autoARXLoad "ArxFile" '("Commnad"))

And for VLX files just add the VLX extension.
(autoload "VLXfile.VLX" '( "Command1"" Command2"))

Just another option in the a world of lisp.
