I got this in my email. It is a great routine. I had one like it. My question is this. I have an "UNLOCKIT" routine that will undeter or unlock it. Should I post it? Gary New Free Functions/Tools ===================================================================== Drawing Modification Deterrent This free tool creates an anonymous minsert of a selection set of geometry. This is a strong deterrent to prevent changes (by others) to the drawing because it can't be exploded or refedited. Be careful to use only on a *copy* of your drawing you intend to to send to others!
