ISM module

(OP)
I tried running the "Transparency" command in AutoCad14 and it gives me error message "missing module ISM". Where can I get this module?

RE: ISM module

The ISM module, or ism.arx is installed during a normal deployment of Autocad. It's possible that your DEMANDLOAD sysvar is set to something other than 3, which will load ism.arx when it detects an image object in the drawing.

Ism.arx is also specific to the type of file loaded.

Try setting DEMANDLOAD to 3 and restart Autocad and test it. If that doesn't work. search for ism.arx in your Autocad tree. If found, make sure it's in a searched path (Autocad file support). If not, uninstall, a=then reinstall the full version of Autocad.

Good luck

Thanks!!...my DEMANDLOAD is set to 3. The ism.arx is in my main ACAD14 root file, not Support. I tried moving into the Support directory but it still does not work so I suspect I will have to reload ACAD14.
