What point do you want?
@0,0 is "nowhere" from the last point.
If you did ^C^C_xline H pause;^C^C_xline v @0,0 it would prompt you for a point then use the same point.
 
^C^C_xline H pause;^C^C_xline V @0,0
When i use this line all i get is a horz line

^C^C_xline H @0,0;^C^C_xline V @0,0
when i use this it draws a horz at the
last point and prompts me for a vert point

I must be doing something wrong ????
 
Try this using a space to repeat
the last command. Works at the
command line, but you can give it
a tryon a macro.

^C^C_xline H pause; V @0,0;

 
Hi rwbaker,

I have annother approach: Insert a block, and explode it...

Edit a "crossline.dwg"
-> put it in Your folder
->make a butten: ^C^C_-insert;"Your Folder/crossline.dwg";\;;;_xplode;l;;;
-> ready

thanks
naujoke
that did exactly what i needed

Hey is ther anyway to work off of cursor location

like on the offset command
our current cadsystem works off of which
line is nearest to the cursor and just offsets a
construction line at whatever dim you tell it
