    Isn't it possible to open a file through ObjectDbx and read a dictionary
    that was created by a program. I am in 2004 and a dictionary I created in a
    file is not in the list of dictionaries when opening through ObjectDbx.
    This is the first time I am trying to accomplish this and I searched all day
    and couldn't find info on ADN or googles.

    Any insight is appreicated.

    complete igonarace on my part. I was passing a file name that was incorrect
    and only showed the default dict for the dbx doc.

    sorry

    yup...trying to look at a watch with a filename like this
    "G:\Documents and Settings\Rob\My Documents\My Autodesk
    Architectural Desktop Projects\Ross Residence\Constructs\First Floor.dwg"

    is a PITA and looks fine but I was passing
    "G:\Documents and Settings\Rob\My Documents\My Autodesk
    Architectural Desktop Projects\Ross Residence\Constructs\First
    Floor\FirstFloor.dwg" <note the extra First Floor

    DOH!!
