    Default E-Transmit Setup

    Is there a way to export/import E-Transmittal setups, or do I have to create these for each computer.

    Also, If I create these under a certain profile, would they be saved within the profile for other users to use.

    I am trying to avoid having to set our company E-Transmit setups on each CAD machine.

    Thanks in advance.

    Looks like they are saved here:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\Rxx.x\ACAD-xxxx:xxx\ETransmit\setups\

    ...which means you could create a REG file and import it at logon time.

    From the Windows Start button (I'm on XP so bear with me): click the Run option, then type REGEDIT and click OK.

    Now the Registry Editor is opened. Browse to the registry folder as rkmcswain shows (changing the x's to your particular AC version). Each setup is a folder under the one shown by rcmcswain.

    To export, right-click on the folder name in the tree view to the left, select Export. Ensure the "Select branch" option at the bottom is selected. Give the export a name ... notice it becomes a REG file.

    Now to import on a different PC, copy the REG file to there, double click it & answer Yes when asked. Voila!

    To import to a different AC version, you can edit the REG file using Notepad. Then change the version numbers.

    This works, as well, regardless of current installation:
    (strcat "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\" (vlax-user-product-key) "\\ETransmit\\setups")

    And I am using this to load the .reg file of a new tranmittal:
    (if (not (member "trans_nam" (vl-registry-descendents (strcat "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\" (vlax-user-product-key) "\\ETransmit\\setups\\"))))
    (command "sh" "regedit.exe /S drv:\\path\\path\\path\\reg_file.reg")
    )

    )
    The regedit portion may have problems if IT has restricted the use of the regedit application. You may be able to get around that by doing the registry writing through autolisp.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.
