    Given I have launched AutoCAD with the shell command and it returned the process Id can I then connect to it and gain control similar to attaching to it with GetObject?
    What I am doing is starting autocad with a profile using the /p switch. What I then want to be able to do is allow the user to switch profiles and force a reload or a restart of AutoCAD.
    Currently trying this with VB.net and AutoCAD2002.

    Thanks
    John

    If there is a document open in AutoCAD, you can get
    it's IDispatch pointer through the Running Object Table
    (ROT), and from that, you can get a pointer to the
    Application object.
