AutoLISP and Diesel expressions. Need little help.

Hello.
I'm still new to all this customization mumbo-jumbo.
My problem is following:
-Need to set USERS1 variable in AutoLISP to store Diesel expression,
-for example:
(setvar “USERS1†“$(getvar, “dwgprefixâ€)â€)

The problem is how to keep quote signs around dwgprefix variable?
Has to be saved in this format $(getvar, “dwgprefixâ€).

Any input appreciated.

 

Try this - watch for word wrap.
(setvar "users1" (strcat "$(getvar, " chr(34) (getvar "dwgprefix") chr(34) ")")

Thank you for speedy replay.
I tried it.
Lisp console returns " error: bad function: 34".

 

(setvar "USERS1" "$(getvar, \"dwgprefix\")")

Try that. :O)

Have fun,
Dave

 

My bad, should have been:
(setvar "users1" (strcat "$(getvar, " (chr 34) (getvar "dwgprefix") (chr 34) ")"))

This one works.
(setvar "users1"
(strcat "$(getvar, " (chr 34) "dwgprefix" (chr 34) ")")
)

 

Hi adnan,

Slightly misplaced " ( " I think, try this...

(setvar "users1" (strcat "$(getvar, " (chr 34) (getvar "dwgprefix") (chr 34)
")"))
