Toolbar Transfer

Can I transfer a custom toolbar that I made in AutoCAD 2000 to AutoCAD
2004? If so, how do I do it? Thank you

 

Adam,

Make a backup (or two) of the 2004 acad.mns file.
Open the 2000 acad.mns file.
Scroll down to the ***TOOLBARS section
Look for the entry with your toolbar name.
Each toolbar entry starts with a ** followed by the toolbar name.
Select the section and right-click, copy.
Open the 2004 acad.mns file.
Scroll down to ***TOOLBARS section
Right click and Paste your toolbar section.

If you have any buttons with custom bmp icon files, copy those icon files to
the support folder in 2004.

Start AutoCAD. I'm not sure what the icon format was in 2004 but if all
your icons have question marks, do this:
Open the 2004 acad.mns file again.
Scroll down to your toolbar section
Replace all instances of ICON_ with RCDATA_

You may want to consider creating your own menu file. It makes migrating
easier and gives you better control.
Check out the customization section in Help.
