Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by 'need to execute

sendstringtoexecute in document context'.

You call SendStringToExecute() from the
size=2>application context

(e.g., a Click handler of a button on a
palette) to execute commands.

PaletteUtils.cs is somewhat advanced and requires that
one

has some understanding and knowledge of the API.

i have a symple program running in a
palette

it let me select files, after it open
they one by time, make some command (i.e. zoom extend) and save it.

The problem is that they are saved before the
command is executed in document context.

You're not showing any code that would allow someone to

diagnose the problem, so i'm guessing that you are calling
the

SaveAs() method after calling SendStringToExecute(). If
that's

the case it explains what's happening.

You will need to find a way to wait until the last command
you

send to the command line has finished (the CommandEnded
event

sounds like it might work), and when it has, then you can
call

the SaveAs() method, or send "QSAVE" to the command line
if

you are saving back to the same file.
