Layout PlotType - AcView vs acView

Anonymous — Thu, 21 Jun 2001 11:33:00 GMT

I'm working on a VB app that ties an Access database and and AutoCAD plotting session together. I want to be able to plot named views in the drawing if they exist. However, when I set my PlotType = acView and then hit return, the word "acView" changes to "AcView" (note the case difference). Then when I attempt to run, I get a compile error that says "Expected variable of procedure, not module." From what I can tell, there is a duplication between an Access module name and an AutoDesk enum variable name. Does anyone know if that is right? Anyone else had this problem? Anyone have a workaround?
Thanks,
Guy

My best guess is that you have a variable defined
as "AcView".

A complete text search of my code turns up no "AcView" variable. I'm pretty sure this has something to do with a conflict between names in Access and AutoCAD.

Anyone else ever run into this?
