    This isn't working on 2004 and I'm drawing a blank as to why not ....

    (defun c:OpenDWG ()
    (setq CFDI (getvar "filedia"))
    (setq CSDI (getvar "sdi"))
    (setvar "sdi" 0)
    (setvar "filedia" 0)
    (command "open" "C:/CAD Files/Details/LB Detail Standards.dwg")
    (setvar "filedia" CFDI)
    )

    Try this:

    ;;;;R.Robert Bell

    (defun CmdOpenDwgNow (fqnName / oldCmdEcho)
    (setq oldCmdEcho (getvar "CmdEcho"))
    (setvar "CmdEcho" 0)
    (command "._VBAStmt" (strcat "AcadApplication.Documents.Open \"" fqnName "\"")
    )
    (setvar "CmdEcho" oldCmdEcho)
    (princ)
    )
    (princ)

    I've used "cmdopen" with sucess but within my Lisp I want to focus on that
    new opened drawing to let my program make some changes.
    Is that possible?

    To open a DWG file with Autolisp, use:
    (command "FILEOPEN" "C:/CAD Files/Details/LB Detail Standards.dwg")
