Thanks, but Im looking for a way to do it with code, that would be a lot of work in 20000 dwgs. Lisp /VBA/.net is fine.

whoa, make sure you want to do that first. if one drawing's code were to
change then the other 19999 would be different. as you can see, that would
lead to a nightmare.

i don't know that there is a way to do it using VBA.

Yep I would love to, Im going to point it to a single network file (if it finds it) to load everytime a drawing is loaded. You can always remove the code across all files, Ive found that code.

I'm certain that you can't "Enable" a macro through VBA code in any VBA
enabled application. If you could, it would allow malicious code to spread
like wildfire. I would be surprised if there is a way to embed a macro via
code for similar reasons.

So If I had the time I could open all my dwgs (20000) and embed the macro into each file that does something malicious to anyone that opens them, so I'm certain you can
"Enable" a macro through VBA. The question is can I do the EMBEDING of my macro with code? Allowing me to embed something beneficial systematically is not the issue, just a time saver.

In Acad 2004 you can turn on "Auto Embed" in "Macro Options". Maybe you
could use that. Don't know if it still exists in higher versions.

In that same dialog box there is a switch titled "Enable macro virus
protection". That switch can not be toggled by VBA in any VBA enabled app.
If it is on the user is asked to allow or disallow the macro to run. If you
could control that switch with VBA code, so could a criminal looking to
format your hard drive.

Hi,

What can embedded code do that "load on startup code" can't?

Aspects I can think off are:

Increase the drawing size
Create FUD for all users who haven't been briefed as to the nature of the
code.
Make enhancing the code far more difficult than need be if it is maintained
as an external file
