Are these single objects (e.g. blocks) or are they simply a group of linework each?

Ok, assuming all the Viewports would be at a the same scale it shouldn't be too difficult. I haven't done this in LISP but I've done it manually before ... here's the steps I take:

Create the 1st layout as you'd want it on the 1st group (say it's the leftmost group for example purposes). Also assume each group is 100000mm center-to-center on model space. Assume the VP's scale is 1:100
Right click the tab & choose "Move or Copy", check the "Create a copy" box at bottom. Select the "(move to end)" in the list * click OK. Repeat for each layout - tip, you can copy more than one at a time by holding down Ctrl and selecting multiple tabs to copy. Rename each if you want.
Go to the next tab, select the VP, gripedit or stretch it's right top/bottom grip at 1000 right (this is calculated by taking the model space distance between the groups 100000 and multiply with scale factor 1:100 is 1/100 = 0.01), Do the same for the left top or bottom grip. Move the VP left by the same value 1000. Then repeat step 3 for each VP, multiplying the value by the count, e.g 3rd page would be times 2, 4th times 3, 5th times 4, etc.I'm sure this could be automated in LISP ... just haven't done it yet. Maybe someone else already have.

ok, you understand it perfectly!

This is my problem, and i would like automatized, because i have to make this operation any time.

I attach a dwg example, where you can see the objects on array and 2 layouts. I need make one layout per array´s object, pleasssse somebody have a routine for this?

My Autocad is v2008

Thank you very much
