My comapany several dozen protected lisp files, but no one seems to know the call commands. Is there a way to find the call commands for the loaded lisp files. Any help would be much appreciated.

By "protected", are these .fas or .vlx files? If so you are probably out of luck as far as reading the file to find the "call". Only way I can think of is trial & error.
 
You can try to open them with an ASCII text editor and see if there is anything readable in it. Otherwise, you are out of luck. But, if they are your companies how is it that there is no documentation?
 
Usually , when not stated , the LSP name is the CALL

Or read at the text screen for some indications.Press F2 after loading it.

In my all lisp, always put as the last line.

(prompt "type nnnnn to run the dddddd.lsp)

 
I'm not a "honcho" with AutoCAD but every time I load LISP files I go to "TOOLS" in AutoCAD commands, then go the "Load Application" ID the LISP routine you want to load, press "Load" button ...down at bottom of command box it'll say "X Lisp successfully loaded" ...then go to the AutoCAD file and type in the name of the Lisp routine and it normally operates for me. Good Luck!
