What exactly is getting loaded here? If I determine I don't need it, can it be de-activated?

[dgorsman]

Its a demand load. Somewhere in that drawing (or its XREFs) are objects or data dictionaries for an application along the lines of LDT or Civil3D. Even if the drawing was never directly touched by those applications, it can happen by inserting/binding another drawing that *has*. The real nutty issue is that its loaded per session, not per drawing, so if you close the problem drawing and open another you won't see that message even if its the same way.

Normally its safe to ignore, but because it can spread like wildfire I try to contain it where possible with some judicious (dictremove...) LISP calls.

Try -purge, Regapp option. (don't forget the minus sign!)

along the lines of LDT or Civil3D.
Minor correction. That would be ACA or MEP.

No, you get the same lines in C3D and LDT. (Below from C3D 2010)

No, you get the same lines in C3D and LDT. Then I guess it all depends. Could be one or the other. :beer:

Yea, I've never understood why LDT and now C3D include all the AEC stuff. None of it's documented.

Yeah, I can see maybe dims, but the arch dll? :? Its probably something like it uses one thing at a high level and then that dll loads everything else.
