Macro Keep Setting Dim Style to STANDARD

[3arizona]

I want to draw a dimension or leader on certain layer and have it go back to a previous layer. The problem is that the macro draws the dimension to the STANDARD dimension style. It also sets the current Dim style to "STANDARD", when the command ends. See macro below:

^C^C;-layer;s;25;;Le\\;layerp;

Before you explore programming a solution, consider using the DIMLAYER variable for dimensions and using tool palettes for leaders.  The tool properties can be set to layer however you like.  If you still need a program, consider visiting http://lee-mac.com/layerdirector.html before writing your own.
