Session Description: Lets face it, most people looking at programming AutoCAD in VBA have some experience using either AutoLISP or Visual LISP. When asked to tackle an Introduction to VBA I had to decide where I wanted to start (starting from no programming experience at all would be too much ground to cover in 90 minutes). I figured that I could introduce you to the VBA environment by comparing it to a language and environment that many of you are already familiar with. The transition from a programming language like one of the LISP languages to the object modeled VBA would be a natural (despite their differences).
