Netload would be the main command then you need to select the dll file.

How can I run a dll from a stand alone .NET app inside AutoCad 2008 at runtime?

Thanks

Make the DLL a COM server, and use the COM GetInterrfaceObject() method to load it.

Hi Tony,

Ok, I need to know if can I execute a dll by sendcommand() loading then and without open autocad interface. I'm setting a AcadApplication.visible = false. No metter if I set it true or false when the sendcommand runs the autocad interface appears anyway. Did you solve any problem like this?

Thanks in advance
