Custom Commands not being recognized?

I have creating a command that uses the ployline edit command and join option.

The name of this command is polyjoin.

I have created an alias for this command...PJ

I have created the macro for this command. It is as follows

^C^C_pedit;\;j;\\\\;;

This allows me to pick a line to change to a polyline, select 4 lines, and make a closed polyline with those 4 lines. This makes a rectangle polyline from 4 lines.

I have put this command in a toolbar w/ image and the command works fine.

The problem is that I cannot type polyjoin or pj at the command line and get this macro to start. It will only work from the button.

My question is what do I need to do to get the custom command to work at the command line?

I am using AutoCAD LT 2010

thanks

That's because it's a macro (more or less a series of keystrokes) and not a command. You can't make an alias for a macro. LT sucks; if it was full Acad you could make it a command.

Thanks, that is what I figured it would be.
