check standards

[Anonymous]

hey guys,

I'm having an issue, which bothers me for years now. I'm quite new to programming and this stuff, so please have patience. 

I didn't find any solution to my problem, so I'm opening a new topic.

We get cadastral plan, which always have the same layers, linetypes, fonts,...

Now I always need to manually put them on our layers, linetypes, fonts using "check standards"
Isn't there an easier and automatic way (LISP) to put them to the certain layer I tell it? For example I always want to put the layer "_road" from this files I get to my layer "_street", and so on. I would of course first need to write this list for every single layer, but once it's done it should work it's way through.

any suggestions? Thanks for any help.

If you can not lisp vba .net
You can buy a program to swap what you need.

But on board you have CAD STANDARDS and for Layer LAYTRANS command,
have you ever test this command?

The bet way to get true help , is to upload the DWG sample , and a  2 columns CSV file oldlayer  newlayer

Hey Sebastian,

I normally use CAD STANDARDS for this problem, but I never tried LAYTRANS. I think this might do the trick already. 

thanks for the fast help
