Add drawings to active project

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone,

I encounter a problem that I do not understand. I created a little C# routine for Autocad Electrical (2011 and 2012) which adds some drawings to the current project with the following command:

(c:ace_add_dwg_to_project  dwg2add  paramlst)

This mehtod works perfectly. With the parameter list you can set the Section, Sub-Section and Descriptions of the page properties, exactly what I want.

When I start the routine, I check which project is active. If the wrong project is active, I activate the appropiate project with the following command:

(c:wd_makeproj_current  wdpfnam)

So, when I want to add drawings to project A and project B is active at the start of the routine, I activate project A and the drawings are added.

The problem:

When I want to add drawings to project A and this project is already active, the drawings are not added to the project. The method mentioned above to add drawings returns nill, which means a failure.

Why is this happening? Is this a bug of Autocad?

I already tried to always activate the project I want to add drawings to, but that doensn't matter.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Thanks in advance.
