Hi all,

Can anyone remind me how to put the little signs along with the message in an AutoCAD alert box. The stop sign, exclamation mark etc.,

Thanks.

Try this:

in command-line type: (alert"your message") and a dialog will open with your message!

Nicolae,

I've been doing what you said OK but it is the Icon in the allert box I'm looking for. Exlamation mark etc.,

Thanks for the reply anyway. Anybody else know?
 
You most likely will not be able to do this with LISP. You will probably need to use VBA. The "alert" doesn't have any icons. Another option would be to use DCL with an image.

smcadman,

Thanks for the reply. You've jogged my memory to realize it was when I dabbled in VB that this was possible.

Thanks again.

Merry Xmas
