The book is a reference guide for AutoCAD programmers, and it’s primarily designed to explain and demonstrate the features of AutoCAD 2006. As such, this isn’t a beginner’s guide; however, if you’ve programmed in any language that can interface with other COM objects, you should be able to easily understand and use this book. In particular, the book is aimed at programmers who use AutoCAD for daily tasks and can see the benefits of customizing and automating these tasks. I present programming techniques needed to create and modify AutoCAD drawings, customize preferences, query and set system variables, and so on, using the built-in VBA. You can customize. | THE EXPERT S VOICE AutoCAD 2006 VBA A Programmer s Reference Joe Sutphin Apress- AutoCAD 2006 VBA A Programmer s Reference Joe Sutphin Apress AutoCAD 2006 VBA A Programmer s Reference Copyright 2005 by Joe Sutphin All rights reserved.
