Calling a previously Recorded Macro in a Script file

[Marcel van Ellen]

Hi All,

I have a simple script file to open a series of drawings in a row.
After opening i do a zoom extend and call a previously recorderd macro.
This works fine until the macro finishes because then my script stops.

Anyone having a solution to this issue?

Thx,

Marcel

What else do you want it to do?

Hi Opie,

I want it to:

1. create and purge layers, text and dimension styles
2. deleting old sheets and titleblocks and insert a new ones
3. synchronize my attributes with a database (EDM system)
4. thaw a certain layer
5. save the drawing

The macro is not the problem. That works fine.
I only cannot call it from a script file.

( I generate a script file from an excel sheet )

the script is as follows:

filedia
0
cmddia
0
attreq
0
open
"c:\test\test1.dwg"
zoom
e
{name of the macro}
qsave
close
open
"c:\test\test2.dwg"
zoom
e
{name of the macro}
qsave
close
...
...
open
"c:\test\test300.dwg"
zoom
e
{name of the macro}
qsave
close
...
..
filedia
1
cmddia
1
attreq
1

I'm not sure.

Have you examined the text screen to see what is happening during your script execution? Could you post the results of the text screen?
