    Hi

    Please note I have *moved* this thread from the CAD Mgmt. General forum to this one, as I feel this particular forum is a more appropriate place for such a topic.

    Thanks, Mike

    Hi

    Check if your Acad.pgp file is being successfully loaded, type the following at the AutoCAD Command Line...

    Code:
    Command: (findfile "Acad.pgp")
    What is returned ?

    Have a good one, Mike

    Does typing the full command like 'Copy' or 'Line' work? If so, the acad.pgp file where the command aliases have been defind might be missing or corrupted. Try to replace it with a valid one in the AutoCAD search path.

    Hi

    Please note, I have *merged* your duplicate thread, posted in the AutoCAD General forum, with this thread.

    Below comes from the "AUGI Forum Guidelines - Forum Don'ts"...

    <snip>
    Do not post the same question to more than one Forum at a time. The term for this is "Cross-Forum Posting" which can be quite confusing and will complicate the Forum process. All but one of the posts will be deleted by the moderators.

    In relation to whatmike has said you could always check through express tools to find out what the pgp is doing as well

    from what I understand, the express tool version of the alias editor wont necessarily tell you the correct location or display the correct pgp file that is being loaded.
