You mention the Shell Command specifically, and I am suggesting that you consider incorporating the Shell.Application Object (i.e., Windows Shell?) into your VB.NET application for launching AutoCAD (outside of AutoCAD, i.e., from a stand-alone EXE).

I am no full-time professional developer myself, but methinks we're talking about two different things with regard to Shell. Sorry for the rant.! I do appreciate everyone's assistance on these forums. I read dozens of articles each day and night which are missing imperative points, have typos of all kinds and just plain useless because the author assumes anyone reading it knows as much about it as they do. And if anyone wants to argue the point, I'll be glad to show how lacking the available documentation on this subject is. NET I'm kind of stuck with asking for lots of advice.

And the namespace requirements.every time I find something which claims it will work, the poster failed to include the Import statements.which as you well know, render the rest of the code useless.and until such time that I'm as familiar with all the nuisances with. With VB.NET it now takes about 12 or 15 lines of code to do the very same thing. Like I showed someone this morning, I used to open a file and read lines of text in with just 3 or 4 lines of code. The IDE in VB 2010 Express which I'm using makes it easy to type the stuff in, but to try and find where someone would have come up with this code in the first place has been the challenge.

But this block of code for this class is 24 lines long and has strings in it that are a meter long. Long ago with BASICA and QBASIC is was not that difficult to build new and exciting things from scratch. No problem, I love a challenge and thus far we've made some decent progress, But as I look at Fixo's code to launch AutoCAD from VB.NET it's hard to fathom how one could program this from scratch. They want me to wean the engineering department off of VBA as soon as possible. I don't make the rules, I just follow them. I have been learning VB.NET because the IT guys here tell me that it's. It works well but it opens AutoCAD in a small window, not maximized, which is what I'm after.

I'm looking for something that is VB.NET compatible and our good friend Fixo had a posting on another forum which I modified.
