While AutoCAD is not directly associated with Office 2000, the AutoCAD object model is now a powerful tool with VBA behind it, allowing graphic designers to control their environment programmatically. It is therefore to be released concurrently with the other Wrox Office 2000 Programmer References. Using VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the user can program his or her own programs in what is essentially a subset of the Visual Basic programming languages. This allows you to automate a lot of the graphical tasks performed daily - such as performing a hundred complex graphical manipulations.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
This book presents a full reference to the AutoCAD 2000 VBA object model - which is essentially the object-oriented system of organizing the functional capacities, that makeup the AutoCAD program. There will be a concise introduction to the VBA language itself, and the rest of the book will thoroughly document aspects of programming AutoCAD 2000.

AutoCAD 2000 VBA : A programmers Reference,
This review is from: AutoCAD 2000 VBA Programmers Reference (Paperback)
I have only recently delved into the further workings of AutoCAD 2000 and thought I'd try my hand at VBA Programming. So I bought this book. As an beginner to programming in general (though not to VB6) I thought the book would be a little above my experience.......WRONG!! This book is an excellent publication for beginner to intermediate users. If, as a VBA programmer, you can't find anything useful in this book then maybe you need to consider your career..........Absolutely outstanding

This review is from: AutoCAD 2000 VBA Programmers Reference (Paperback)
I just bought this book and I think it is an excellent book to learn VBA within AutoCad. I took a class in Autocad VBA back in the summer and got a copy of Using Autocad with Visual Basiic but found this books content a little lacking in terms of demonstrating the overall power of VBA. Autocad 2000: A VBA programmers reference is very good in exploring the Autocad object model as well as providing lots of sample coding. Also includes an extensive reference of Autocad VBA objects, methods and properties. An excellent book overall.
