Script file no longer working?

I ran a file that had been written by a few of you recently and it worked great

http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?56084-Layerstate-applied-via-lisp

I think that its because the layerstate has already been imported. I have saved over the original layerstate and tried to re run it but get NIL. I think its because its already in the layerstate manager it wont reimport.

i thought i could write the code like this

(if (layerstate-delete "ELLS" nil)
(layerstate-import "I:\\DRAWINGS\\090-0056 LFMP\\Common\\Layer_States\\ELLS.las")
(layerstate-restore "ELLS" nil)
)
_QSAVE
_close

but still no luck.. any ideas other then rewriting the lisp? and re saving the layerstate with a different name.

Maybe theirs a way to delete all layerstates in a drawing i am unaware with?

Hi, your post had probably gone by the wayside because of the site going off-line.

Anyhow, what about checking if the layer state already exists. If it does, then delete it. After which the import should work fine.

(if (layerstate-has "ELLS") (layerstate-delete "ELLS"))
;; continue with the usual codes from the other thread.
