I have been successful in writing vb code to have excel draw a bunch of circles in ACAD from coordinates in excel and drawing a rectangle to define the part.
I would now like to give the user the option to erase all holes from excel and start over.
I have
ACAD.ActiveDocument.SendCommand ("_ERASE ALL ")
however this causes Acad to sit there waiting for an ENTER keystroke.
I have tried
SendKeys "{enter}", False
But it never gets to this because ACAD is still waiting.
Any help would be appreciated
TIA
