adding an object into the object data programmically

Anonymous — Thu, 08 Nov 2001 05:28:04 GMT

Hi,
I know we can attach an object to an object data manually but now I need to
attach a single object to the object data but I need to do this
programatically, (i.e. using either the VBA or the Lisp) so that using this
script whenever an object is drawn it is automatically attached to the
object data table.

Any help???

Thanks

Sherine,

The Map Digitize feature within AutoCAD Map may work for you. You can
create a toolbar with scripts that will set the feature type to be digitized
(linear or point/block), and you can also set it up to automatically attach
Object Data. Once it is set up and the user digitizes an object they will
automatically be prompted to fill in the Object Data Record.

But, if you want to accomplish through VBA it is possible. To get started
load the MapSample.dvb found in the Example subfolder of Map. This contains
VBA code samples for attaching Object Data to objects.

Hope this helps,

Scott
