This is a continuation of: [URL]http://discussion.autodesk.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4770472&#4770472[/URL] I think everyone thought all problems were solved but they are not, so now I start a new thread. Why does (command "_new" "D-JOBNO-0G1.1.DWT") work fine with SDI set to 1 (with a "Y" in between to discard changes in a new unchanged drawing), but once you set SDI to 0 AutoCAD says "Unknown command "D-JOBNO-0G1.1.DWT". Press F1 for help."????? p.s. If you do it on the command line in AutoCAD: _NEW (Enter) D-JOBNO-0G1.1.DWT (Enter) it works fine Please see link above for more info.
