Importing multiple tool palettes AT ONCE

[matthew_neesley]

I can't believe this is STILL not a simple "just click and do it."  I'm responsible for a growing number of tool palettes with close to a thousand blocks now.  These palettes and blocks get updated every few weeks, and I REALLY don't want to have to keep telling over 50 users that they have to manually delete AND re-add 25 tool palettes one-by-one, that's just CRAZY ridiculous.

Does anyone have a common-sense solution, even if it's a custom AutoLISP routine?  We use another company's software add-in to ACAD that does it, but their code is proprietary.  Thanks in advance!

NO that does NOT work.  The "Import Palette Group" does NOT bring in the tool palettes!

FYI I see I should have included another detail:  These palettes are going to external customers, so a "networked drive" arrangement is simply not possible.  I will try to find another solution.

There is no ability to autoload TPs to external recipients with core AutoCAD features: you will need to build an installer for them to run at their end then hope their internal network security and logins allow for it.
