    Yes,
    I am having problems creating a layer/color using entmake. Whenever the function is called, it spits out this message:

    error: bad DXF group: (62 . "7")

    I can tell that my problem is the color code is being entered as a string, when it should be entered as an intger. But yet I thought that is what I had it programed to do.

    I did find a way to cheat the code, by setting val = value, and wrapping the (nth (atoi val) recp_colr_list) with another (atoi), but I shouldn't have to do that. Where am I going wrong? This is my first time experimenting with entmake.

    Code:
    (DEFUN RecpLayr	(val)
(SETQ	recp-layr (NTH (ATOI val) recp_layr_list) ;;set recp-layr to list value
recp-colr (NTH (ATOI val) recp_colr_list) ;;set recp-colr to list value
) ;_ end of SETQ
(IF (NOT (TBLSEARCH "layer" recp-layr))
(PROGN
(ENTMAKE
(LIST
'(0 . "LAYER")
'(100

    Without seeing how the list "recp_colr_list" is constructed there' no way to
    tell. It DOES mean that the list is being created with a string value.

    function is called, it spits out this message:

    had it programed to do.
    the (nth (atoi val) recp_colr_list) with another (atoi), but I shouldn't
    have to do that. Where am I going wrong? This is my first time
