AboutScott Cook Expertise I`ve been using AutoCAD since 1987 and programming AutoLISP nearly as long. I can answer questions about programming AutoCAD (except ARX) and production enhancement techniques. I cannot answer questions about AutoCAD crashes or DWG corruption. AutoCAD PROGRAMMING (menus, lisp) related questions only!

PROGRAMMING QUESTIONS ONLY PLEASE. Questions that are NOT related to programming or AutoCAD customization (menus and lisp only please) are outside the scope of my volunteer services and will NOT BE ANSWERED.
Question I have previously used an Autolisp program and it worked fine. It is a program to draw curved text along a polyline (as in a creek name along the path of the creek). Recently when I run the program I get the following: "No Function Definition: VLR-Mouse-Reactor".
I am using ACAD 2005 and have had some training with AutoCAD and AutoLISP. I have reloaded the original file in case something had been changed.(It's from the Hot Tip Harry collection). I have tried the program in new files and old files where I used it before but the same error message.
Any idea what might be causing this?
Thanks
Any idea what may be
Answer Did it work with an earlier version of autocad? when did you notice that it broke?
You may need to do a (vla-load-com) before using the routine. It's also possible the function you are using has been renamed or removed by autodesk. The VLR is for visual lisp reactor. I've never used the function you are referencing, but it sounds like a built-in one. You can look in the autolisp function manual under V to see if it's listed.
