I haven't been having problems, but then again I've not been using issuing
command line...

I'm using vla functions and reactors, and all has been working just fine...

 

...while were on the subject...

My typical loading sequence for an ObjectDCL dialog box project usually looks something like this:

(setq DB "c:/AutoLISP/Systems/Rework/Odc/Rework_Master")
(Odcl_LoadProject DB T)
(Odcl_Form_Show DB "Rework_Master_Main")

Notice how the first line does not include the extension of the filename - Example: Rework_Master.odc

I seemed to be able to get away with not including this extension (.odc) in previous versions of AutoCAD using ObjectDCL. However, it appears to be hit and miss in AutoCAD 2005. I've been having to go back into numerous programs and ADD the .odc extension to this line of code when loading the Project Dialog Box.

(setq DB "c:/AutoLISP/Systems/Rework/Odc/Rework_Master.odc")

I realize that it probably would have been a good idea to always have included the extension in all my programs. I'm curious to know how other users load their projects and if they use the .odc extension in the load line.
