An extract of my script flie looks like this but its the last bit after the zoom extents thats messing me around.

open c:\Temp\New\A2sa.dwg zoom e
open c:\Temp\New\A2vic.dwg zoom e
open c:\Temp\New\A2wa.dwg zoom e
open c:\Temp\New\A3bang.dwg zoom e
open c:\Temp\New\A3nsw.dwg zoom e

Hi,

The extension .DWT is used for template files, however, your script doesn't indicate that you are attempting to open such a file, but a .dwg file. So, what's the problem?
 
Hi,

Try this in your script:
fileopen <drawing.dwg>
saveas Template <enter key>

Good luck ;-)
