    Exclamation Lost "Last file opened path"

    Back in the good ol' days (Friday) I could open a drawing and if I needed another drawing from this folder or any other I clicked on the handy "open file" icon and presto! There were all the .dwg files in the folder I had most recently opened in a box in center screen plus the option to browse other drives. Now in these darker times (Monday) the response I receive when I click on the "open file" icon is "Enter name of drawing:" and the last path used to open a drawing. If I haven't opened any drawings since I turned on my system the default path is "*.*". Now one else in our department is having this problem. I'm new to AUGI though I have been Drafting for about five years now using "2000". I sure hope someone out there has some ideas on this problem because I'm baffled. For any help, Thanks, Jamie

    Set FILEDIA to 1. Sometimes, if you cancel out of a lisp routine, etc, this may get set to 0.

    Nope, only the request for a path. Similar "fileopen" command.

    Is the drawing on your computer, or on a network in your office?
