Fatal error

Fatal error

Fatal error

(OP)
My company just upgraded to 2007. It works fine unitil I try to import a profile. the profile works fine until I leave the program.When I open AutoCAD again I get a fatal error and it shuts down. The only way can get it going is to uninstall and reinstall.

Has anyone run into this problem.

The only reason I use profiles is so I don't have to keep typing directories into the Support File Search Path

Thanks for any help

RE: Fatal error

I added this in our ACAD.LSP file so it ensures that a support path is available when AutoCAD starts. Might help you?

;AddSupportPath:
;Example: (ADD_SUPP_PATH "C:\\PROGRAM FILES\\ACADM 6\\SUPPORT\\CUSTOM")
;-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(defun AddSupportPath (PATH / FILES PATHLIST)
  (vl-load-com)
  (setq FILES (vla-get-files(vla-get-preferences(vlax-get-acad-object))))
  (setq PATHLIST (vla-get-supportpath FILES))
  (if (not (vl-string-search PATH PATHLIST))
    (progn
      (setq PATHLIST (strcat PATHLIST ";" PATH))
      (vla-put-supportpath FILES PATHLIST)
      ) ;progn
    )
