Hello all,

I am nearing completion writing the VBA code for a user form that will create my 3d objects according to user imput dim's and then match that object with an entity that contains price and other information that resides on excel spreadsheets.

I would like to have this application open with AutoCAD and "dock" like a menu, left or right of the model space.

Is this possible in VBA? Or should I write this in LISP?

If the latter, I know very little about LISP, and intergrating it with VBA any Help??

8) It is possible to create a menu and toolbar for your app using VBA.
Have a look at this link to get an idea on you can apply this to your app.

Thanks for the link Eddie!

The vba menu's they describe are not exactly what I'm looking for. I want to put my user form into a tool box. With the information they provide I may be able to figure out how to do this. and I am sure that I will have to create a new .mnu file or add to acad.mnu - but I,m not sure if I will just be adding a link here or the actual command to get the userform and treat it like a tool box. Please don't tell me I need to rewrite all my VBA code into the menu file?

I'll let you know of my success or failure...
