    Hi All,

    I'm writing a custom app using VB .NET and ACAD 2002. Does any of you experts out there know how to open a drawing and make it the Activedocument. I already have the ACADAPP object defined and open but am having no luck trying to open an existing drawing file and making it the ActiveDocument.

    Thanks in advance!

    AcadDocument doc = acadApp.Documents.Open(filename)
