RTEXT Plot Stamp: Wrong Drawing Path

    We have a 2005 user whose DIESEL RTEXT Plot Stamp string appears normally on screen, and in the plot preview, but when the drawing plots, it changes the drawing path in the stamp.

    For example, it should be:
    J:\ProjectName\DrawingName.dwg
    It shows up as:
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\PBPlot_nnnn\DrawingName.dwg, where username is his logon name, and nnnn is a 4-digit number.

    We're running Win2kpro w/ Service Paks, on a Win??Server Network.

    Any ideas?

    We figured it out...
    The user had his BACKGROUNDPLOT variable set to 3 instead of 2.

    Thanks, Dean.
