Running a visual basic project.

Anonymous — Sun, 14 Jan 2001 12:32:47 GMT

Hello all!

I have managed to create my first visual basic project for AutoCAD, now it
is time for a dumb question!

What is the "preferred" method of loading and running a visual basic macro
(so as to give that built in feel)?

For example, with lisp, I always created the code, put it in the search
path, and added an autoload statement to my acaddoc.lsp file.

I can get the project to load and run by creating a lisp file which loads
and runs the visual basic file. I then reference this lisp file in my
acaddoc.lsp file. But I was interested in getting the oppions of the
experts!

Thanks for any help!

Create a custom toolbar button and insert a demand load statement for your
routine in the button's 'Macro' field:

-vbarun;VBAFile.dvb!VBAMacro;
