    I have been using AutoLISP for a while but was planing on getting into VBA. I was wondering what the strengths of it were compared to Lisp? In other words what kind of customization can be accomplished best with what language? I am planing on righting a routine that will label mulit-lines as they are drawn with any one of a number of different labels. Thanks.

    I second Mark's reply!



     



    For you're multi-line routine, it can be done via both, just depends on how you want it to operate (input/prompts/etc.).

    You can certainly do what you described using VBA.




    I think its greatest strength over AutoLISP is that it's much easier to create GUI's. It also allows you to communicate directly with Excel, Access, Word, Outlook, etc.

    Mark
    That's also a feature of Visual LISP...;-)

    Cheers
