Loading my profile

Hi All

I need to take my AutoCad Profile from my home computer into the office computer. I want my Cad desktop to be identical with home one. I did this once around 2 years ago. But I just can't remember how to do it.

Thanks for help in advance.

Go to Options or type OPTIONS at the command prompt.

Review the following under Options - Profile Tab - Export or Import.

Controls the use of profiles. A profile is a configuration you define.

Available Profiles

Displays a list of the available profiles. To set the current profile, select a profile and choose Set Current.

Set Current

Makes the selected profile the current profile.

Add to List

Displays the Add Profile dialog box to save the selected profile under a different name.

Rename

Displays the Change Profile dialog box for changing the name and description of the selected profile. Use Rename when you want to rename a profile but keep its current settings.

Delete

Deletes the selected profile (unless it is the current profile).

Export

Exports a profile as a file with an .arg extension so the file can be shared with other users. You can import the file on the same computer or a different computer.

Import

Imports a profile (a file with an .arg extension) created by using the Export option.

Reset

Resets the values in the selected profile to the system default settings.

Great help. Funny how you forget things when you don't use them for a while.

Not a problem at all,

Just remember you can always resort to the ACAD help section as well. Although sometimes on the dry side, I do use it most often.
