I have a quick question regarding the two attached files. I have a "Buffalo" menu with a menuitem "holes" with the heading "Buffalo Hole Inserts". I am attempting to automatically load this menu (in it's absence) using the acad.lsp with the menuitem "holes" in the P11 position. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance. BTW the menu loads but the pulldown doesn't appear. If I load the menu manually the pulldown appears in the last position. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- acad.lsp ;This file loads the RAM Drafting Menus. ;See acaddoc.lsp for the loading of the RAM Drafting LISP routines.

Rather than use lisp, you could just use the menuload command, browse to the mns file and it will load. It will then be saved with the current profile (options) and will load with every session.
A friend found the problem for me. The proper command for menucmd was "P11=+buffalo.holes" not "P11=+holes.buffalo" In order to avoid the confusion I've renamed the menu item from holes to buffalo. Now my menucmd is "P11=+buffalo.buffalo" Thanks for your help.
