    Hi,
    I have written a line to plot to a file. It works fine when I give a file path and name that is our local drive eg.
    "G:\\LSPTEMP\\bzndo_test".
    But when I try to plot to "\\\\qas400\\forms\\bzndo_test"
    AutoCAD ignores the filename and continues to prompt for a file name.
    I tried some searches but couldn't find what I need.

    TIA

    Bill

    After further testing I found I was limited to an 8 character file name on that network.

    Sorry for any wasted time.
