How do I set the dimscale using VBA. I follow stuff that in a VBA for A2K
and it does not work.

This sets it to 100:

ThisDrawing.SetVariable "DIMSCALE", 100

Doesn't that create a style override? One way to make a global change to
your dimstyle is to make the change on an individual dimension then use that
dimension as the argument for the call to the dimstyle's CopyFrom method.

Frank, I have tried this and, if you have several dimstyles with different
arrowheads and color settings and other differences in your dimension
styles, - this will be copied too. But on just one dimstyle it will work
perfectly. I have a post regarding this earlier (04-14-2000).
