Inserting Drawings with VB

I have a VB6 application that locates detail drawings from a cd and inserts them into AutoCAD. I would like to make it compatible with IntelliCAD.

I have to use "SendCommand" with AutoCAD because you cannot 'ghost' the drawing as it's inserted with vb methods.

How will this work with IntelliCAD? I'm not at all familiar with the object library at this point.

Thanks

chatcher,

IntelliCAD's object library is very simmilar to AutoCAD 2000. You can use the "SendCommand" Method just like AutoCAD.

IntelliCAD has a point object with .x .y and .z instead of using an array.

Your code will need only a small amount of alteration to suit IntelliCAD.
