How do you join multiple lines into one solid shape that can be extruded? I scanned drawings into a raster program that converted them to .dwg's but I cant figure out how to make the shapes connect into one solid unit

I'm using Autocad 2000

You can pedit them to join, lines together, but may find some are not closed but to the process they have come from.

 
You could also try this lisp to join them
 
(defun c:JP (/ ss)
  (and (setq ss (ssget ":L" '((0 . "ARC,*POLYLINE,LINE"))))
       (if (zerop (getvar "peditaccept"))
         (command "_.pedit" "_m" ss "" "_y" "_j" "" "")
         (command "_.pedit" "_m" ss "" "_j" "" "")
       ) ;_ if
  ) ;_ and
  (princ)
) ;_ defun

You can try the [CMD]JOIN[/CMD] or [CMD]PLJOIN[/CMD] or [CMD]PEDIT[/CMD] Join commands.

Thank you! PLJOIN worked, i was trying the other two commands but to no avail. Now I can extrude them and send them out to be fabricated.
