TODAY WINDOW SYSTEM VARIABLE

TODAY WINDOW SYSTEM VARIABLE

TODAY WINDOW SYSTEM VARIABLE

(OP)
Hi Guys n Gals

Does anyone know if there is a system variable that controls the path that shows where your today window looks for your in-house bulletin board.

I know how to find it via the today window itself, but I need to find the path out using a lisp routine.

Any Ideas??

Thanks

The Welshman

RE: TODAY WINDOW SYSTEM VARIABLE

This was an interesting post ...
What I found ...
Is the editcadmgr.htm under "C:\acad200" ...
I opened it in WORD as plaiin text and edited at will ...
I also created a blank one from scratch in NOTEPAD.

Type in ...

HELLO RICH...
BYE RICH

And saved it as z.htm
And saved it as z.txt

When I browsed to it ...
And saved the path ...
The message came up differently depending on which file I pointed to ...

But the message stayed open for every session of AutoCAD until I deleted the file.

I didn't find the variable that loads this but the messenging seems to work like a charm. What exaclty are you trying to accomplish?
