    hi,

    how can i open a custom template, or in other words when acad is started
    through VB, it should
    start myTemplate.dwt instead of acadiso.dwt.

    TIA

    'Creates a new drawing using name of template

    ' different process for SDI and MDI modes
    With AcadApplication
    If .Preferences.System.SingleDocumentMode = True Then
    ThisDrawing.New TemplateName
    Else
    'Use the application object.
    'ThisDrawing object will not be
    'available when all docs are closed.
    .Documents.Add TemplateName
