Setting the the plot configuration

Dave and Mike,

The RefreshPlotDeviceInfo is not necessary.

My hunch is that the StyleSheet or .CTB file was not created in the same
version of AutoCAD that you're currently trying to execute your application.

Open the file in your current version and re-save it and see if that does
not clear up your problem.

Can you send me a copy of the full code? You may have posted and I
missed it.

I politely beg to differ Joe. In past experiences, the refresh is
necessary - and, I started doing it after adn recommended it. 'Course
even if you have some insight that I am not aware of [yet?], it still
does no harm.

As for myself - no that does not help, I created the ".ctb" specifically for this program in the version I am using. I have also found that although the other settings (such as .CenterPlot = True), look to be changing in the watch but the actual plot does not represent the change. We have found a work around by creating the template for these drawings with those settings as the defaults for the drawing, But I should be able to make the code work shouldn't I ? Are you saying that the code is written properly?? and there is something somewhere else that is "out of whack"?
Here's the entire sub if you would like another look.

Private Sub Send_DWF()
StrStylSheet = "Black_White_Plot.ctb"
Set ACADLayout = ObjAcadDoc.ActiveLayout
With ACADLayout
.PlotType = acExtents
.PlotRotation = ac90degrees
.CenterPlot = True
.StandardScale = acScaleToFit
.StyleSheet = StrStylSheet
.PlotWithPlotStyles = True
.RefreshPlotDeviceInfo
End With
ObjHypLayer.Plottable = True
ObjAcadDoc.Plot.PlotToDevice (PlotConfig)
ObjHypLayer.Plottable = False
End Sub


Thanks

Make the following change and see what happens.

No change,
I still get rejected on the StyleSheet line. I placed an On Error goto statement at the begining of the Sub, but I get no error it just jumps out, returns to the original procedure and continues from there. No clues here!

If you can send the code to me at I'd be happy to look into
it further.
