	How to open a different drawing using a menu macro?
	We were using this menu macro: [Drawing A]^C^C_setvar;filedia;0;_open;D:/documentation/drawings/A.dwg;_setvar;filedia;1; but since AutoCADu LT 2000 this doesn't work anymore. Change the _OPEN command to _FILEOPEN: [Drawing A]^C^C_setvar;filedia;0;_fileopen;D:/documentation/drawings/A.dwg;_setvar;filedia;1;
