What I�m trying to accomplish with my limited knowledge of Lisp:
 
I have a section plane already inserted in my drawing with the proper settings selected to generate and replace an existing 2D block. The section plane is on layer �W-SECT-LOW�.
I�m trying to make a shortcut lisp that will bring up the Generate Section/Elevation Dialog Box and automatically select the section plane on this layer, and then execute �C� for create.
 
This is what I have so far:
 
(command "sectionplanetoblock" (ssget "_X" '((8 . "W-SECT-LOW"))))
 
It brings up the Dialog Box with the �select section plane� button highlighted. After I press the spacebar it recognizes my section plane has already been selected, then I press �C� and it creates the 2D block.
Can anyone help me add to this so I won�t have to press �spacebar� and �C�??  
-Thank you
