VLIDE break on error

[Randy Richardson]

Well I was just given a new computer to use and I suppose I ought to be estatic, but the VLIDE is not giving me the same features I had come to depend upon on the old system (although, like they say, you don't know what you got 'til it's gone).

On the old computer, (Windows NT) if I clicked "Break On Error" on the Tools menu, it stayed checked. I only had to do this once.

In this new computer, (Windows 2000) it comes un-checked. Is there a setting that I'm missing? I want it checked all the time. I don't ever want that to be un-checked. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Randy Richardson

I close AutoCAD daily, so the change should have taken effect the first time I did it.

I turned it on again and closed AutoCAD this afternoon, and the VLIDE.DSK file contains line

(*break* . T)

so hopefully it will remain this time?????

OK, the setting is holding now. Maybe I had more than one AutoCAD open at the time when I set this the first time, or some other unacceptable. Maybe it's just one of those computer mysteries that will never be solved.
