yes, it was set to show hidden files and folders. Any other suggestions? I have tried text searching in all support files for s::startup and had no luck there either.

I will double check but I am 99% sure I have the show hidden files and show system files checked so they should be appearing. I may have to just work with the IT guys and get a fresh install. I just dont want to have to wait a week to get a fresh install if I can help it.

I have replaced the whole support directory with a copy of all files from another machine and this has not solved the problem either.

yes we are on a server and I had attempted searching it, but it was shut down yesterday due to a virus and it would still load the properties dialog so it is not loading from our server.

Is there any way that i can limit the size of the windows in my autocad menu files. autocad automaticly adds arrows to scroll with if your menu file exceeds the size of your display. I would like to limit the size of the window to about 4" tall. Can this be done in the menu files or do i...

the error it gives me states: This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. create an association in the folder options control panel. i tried this and it appears as though it should work.

i cannot open autocad 2002 files from windows. i get an error that i have to create an association with that folder. i tried this and it didnt work. i cant figure this out, but it really annoys me. any help would be appreciated.

ok guys, i am still having no luck. i am getting an error message when the lisp routine is doing its thing. could this be due to the fact that these files are stored on a network drive? also my autocad 2002 is a network version, could this be part of the problem? i am at my wits end on this one.

Estassoc, yes, i want to overwrite existing dwgs with r14 format. i dropped you an email, if you dont receive it you can mail me at n.zakowski@mchsi.com. Admiralken, i do not have the migration assistant so i cannot use the batch conversion tool.

ok, now my problem is that the above lisp routine is saving every drawing as y. i need to keep the original file names due to our filing system. also this routine is only opening the first file on the script and then instead of using command open, "file.dwg" it just enters the...
