Bad Argument type: streamp nil

[Anonymous]

I have a BOM lisp routine used by approx. (20) people.  It works great on (19) systems, and does not work on that (1) system.  It's a problem with the system, and I need help where to look.  The Lisp routine has not changed over 20 years, and other than minor hiccups it's a great tool.  Any ideas why the odd system is displaying Bad Argument type: stream nil when running the routine?  It displays a BOM on the drawing, and crashes at the moment it is suppose to display.

Hi Bruce,

probably a permissions issue.

The code is trying to close a file, that wasn't opened.

Just a guess...

Affecting just the one system? The lisp and supporting files are stored on the local. Does that make a difference?

I can open a new drawing locally, and run the lisp without touching the network. Should there still be a permissions issue?

Where is the file written?

In the dwg folder?
