Hi Sam,

I reran this just to test it. With the code you posted. I placed all of the files in a directory called C:\testing (block.xls,drawing1.dwg,part1.dwg,part2.dwg and part3.dwg). Everything worked when I checked the references for excel and acad.

btw you can continue to post in the other thread. just because you marked it solved doesn't mean you can't post. :)

there is a zip file that I uploaded on the other thread for you to test with. remember that I have everything in the c:\testing folder
