    Description

    Definition of a script or scripting: To write an executable section of code that automates a task. “Automating a task” is exactly how AutoCAD scripting works. Putting together several script commands or scripts, any user can set up multiple drawing standards to change hundreds to thousands of drawings in a snap using AutoCAD with Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), Microsoft Excel with VBA, and, most importantly, Core Console. In this class, you’ll learn how to use all of these tools to change, adjust, and process individual files, directories, and whole projects efficiently and effectively with little effort. All attendees will leave armed with the necessary tools to take the drudgery out of mind-numbing tasks, and filled with the potential of being carried like a hero around the office for saving hundreds of hours processing thousands of project drawings. This class will feature AutoCAD software, AutoCAD with VBA, Excel with VBA, and Core Console. Core Console is included in all industry-specific, AutoCAD-based applications.
