    Hi all,

    anybody knows why this is accepted:

    (setq ss (ssget "X" '((0 . "INSERT") (2 . "blockname"))))

    and this isn't:

    (setq ss (ssget "X" '((0 . "INSERT") (cons 2 block))))

    where block is a variable with value "blockname".

    ??

    Thanks

    Stef

    You should do:
    (setq ss (ssget "X" (list '(0 . "INSERT") (cons 2 block))))
    if want to use function "cons", because ' = (quote <expr>) - "Returns an expression without evaluating it" (from help).

    Regards

    HI StefVdM, maybe it should be

    (setq ss (ssget "X" '((0 . "INSERT") (cons 2 "block"))))

    not this below

    (setq ss (ssget "X" '((0 . "INSERT") (cons 2 block))))
