This macro should work.  I substituted a "qsave" for "saveas".

Ok, could advise me as to set up a macro that would do a purge all, audit, zoom extents and save as as one command? perhaps I could see where I am going wrong.
Thanks....confused...

I notice that you haven't set an option for the Purge command.  In the macro I use I first purge all Regapps then do a second Purge using the "All" option followed by an AUDIT to fix any errors before finally saving.]]> Thu, 14 Jun 2012 11:50:46 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=7973&PID=20570&title=code-for-commands#20570 <![CDATA[code for commands : The code above works ok, but where...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=7973&PID=20563&title=code-for-commands#20563 Author: Arthurengineer

The code above works ok,  but where do I add the purge command to the line?...Is it .....  purge_zoom _e ^C^C_saveas  ? 
I tried all positions but to no avail. I must be doing something fundamentally wrong....as you may see I am very much a beginner to any kind of programming although I do like to experiment.

Hello all,
I have been trying to integrate three commands with one custom button. 
I have assigned the following to the button     _zoom _e ^C^C_saveas     This gives me  zoom extents followed by the save as dialogue box. 
In 2007 LT I managed to have the purge command thrown in as well.
I am now running Inventor LT 2012, mainly the LT side with our large legacy of 2D drawings whilst I find my way around the Inventor side.
I would like to have my old command (zoom extents, purge & save as) in LT 2012 but no matter what I try I can't get it to work. 
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in anticipation.
