How do I make a command/macro
or what ever it's called
to repeat a list of commands

I need to change a lot (10,000)
of points to circles.
My old DXF to Gerber program (PCGERBER) was able to do it
Now I use CAM350 and I can't figure out how to do it.

If you need only visual appearance, set the PDMODE variable to 32 and regen. If you need real circles, try something like the attached P2C routine (APPLOAD it and run the P2C command):

Sorry, it was a setup problem on our side - it has been fixed now.
 
Just download the LSP file, APPLOAD it into AutoCAD and type the P2C command.

Thanks for the file.
It wound have worked if they were points,
but they weren't.
They were lines with no length.
I used AR-SAND Hatch and exploded it.
They don't import to CAM350 as lines.
they don't import at all.
Can anyone help?
