LISP command on command line works, but not associated with an icon in ribbon

[oransen]

This command:

^C^C^P(progn (setvar "FILEDIA" 0) (command "_NETLOAD" "C:\\Users\\oransen\\source\\repos\\Dwg_Classif\\bin\\x64\\Release\\Dwg_Classif.dll") (setvar "FILEDIA" 1)) MyFirstCommand

works properly on the command line, but when placed inside an icon properties appears to get only half way:

In the command it is like this:

What have I missed? What don't I know? What error have I made? Who am I?

TIA

If I use / instead of \\ it works. Hells bells.

Just a stab in the dark I have multiple lisp load etc in a menu and they work, only difference is that they are not wrapped in a (progn , using / can fail if any of your directories have a space in their name where as \\ works ok.

Could be because a backslash “\” in a menu macro represents a pause for input.
