There are two 'types' of polylines, POLYLINEs and LWPOLYLINEs. I would guess that you'll want to have both in your code.

Are you sure? My reference has both listed (note that LWPolyline comes a few pages ahead of Polyline, because it comes earlier in the alphabet). ___ "youngman" wrote in message news:4156a8b4$1_3@newsprd01... > i look it up in developer help's dxf files code , > > there is only polyline.
