  1. My question is two-fold:

    1) Since a function is available for testing the ability to save data over a session boundary (What is a "session boundary" anyway?), what kind of conditions could prevent the data from being saved?

    2) Are there any limitations to the amount of data that can be saved in the drawing dictionary? I've succesfully written an 80K list without a problem, but I'd like to know if the limit (If one exists) is determined by the AutoCAD program itself or the system resources. I'm working on a 3.4GHz w/ 2G ram, but could somebody on 450MHz with 128 MB ram write the data just the same?

    TIA

  2. Closing the drawing, in this case. (IMHO, it _should_ mean closing AutoCAD,
    but LData is saved with the drawing).

    Stay away from LData. The data stored is not accessible to VB(A), hosing
    your data if you choose to use other languages for development. True
    dictionaries are nearly as capable.
