    Default After running igesout command from MDT I have to reset to my vanilla AutoCAD profile

    Everytime I run MDT to do an igesout, I have reselect the vanilla profile the next time
    I click on my shortcut to run AutoCAD.

    Is there a specific reason this happens?

    MDT is run from a separate shortcut than Vanilla.
    I do not that the Vanilla shortcut would open as MDT.

    Suggestions?

    You aren't calling a profile from the shortcut, are you, using the \p switch?

    No, but I probably should.
    I am guessing that would fix the problem.

    I tried loading a profile using the shortcut but then I had to appload
    all of my lisp routines. Ouch! Is there something I need to do
    with the lisp files? I have them in the startup suite.

    Are you pointing to the folder where the lisp files are in your support files?

    Did that make sense? Under files, support files, you have to show the folder where the lisp files are.

    Yes, it points to the correct folder. I don't think I will ever figure out what
    AutoCAD is up to. I loaded it up the morning with the profile shortcut and
    was missing all but 2 of the toolbars. After resetting the profile, the missing
    toolbars appeared.

    No matter what I setup, I think the software has a mind of its own!
