How to call a .scr script file using VB

How to call a .scr script file using VB

How to call a .scr script file using VB

(OP)
I have a visual basic application that creates a .scr AutoCad script file, and I need this Visual Basic application to run the .scr file. Does anyone know how to do this? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: How to call a .scr script file using VB

I think you need the code to emulate the way a script file is usually run.

Try adding a line like:

DwgDoc.SendCommand "Script ScriptFileName" & vbCr

where:
DwgDoc is the ACad document object you will have declared earlier
ScriptFileName is the name of the script file (you may need to specify the full pathname of the file).

Hope this helps
