    I need some help out there...
    How do I get this routine to insert a block and not have to give a x & y scale factor. Where in the insert command do I give a "1" "1" for scale factor?
    Any help would be appreciated...


    (defun c:RECEPT (/ oce)
    (setq oce (getvar "CMDECHO"))
    (setvar "CMDECHO" 0)
    (command "_.-layer" "_M" "ELECT" "")
    (command "_.-layer" "_C" "4" "ELECT" "")
    (command "_.-layer" "_L" "CONTINUOUS" "ELECT" "")
    (command "_.-layer" "_ON" "ELECT" "")
    (command "_.-layer" "_T" "ELECT" "")
    (command "_.-layer" "_U" "ELECT" "")
    (command "_.INSERT" "RECEPT")
    (setvar "CMDECHO" oce)
    (princ)
    )

    BriLaF,

    Change the line: (command "_.INSERT" "RECEPT")

    To: (command "_.INSERT" "RECEPT" pause "1" "1")

    My favorite approach is to use the Insert command's options:

    (command "._Insert" "Recept" "_s" 1 "_r" 0 pause)

    This approach will give you a dragging insert at the scale (and rotation)
    you have provided which is important if the scale is something other than 1.

    (command "._Insert" "Recept" "_s" 1 "_r" 0 pause)

    I agree, Mr., Bell's approach is even better...
