Thank you for this lisp,i am very new to lisps.

Is there anyway you can have the table update automaticaly.

Say i delete or add sum more lines to the layer,can i have it so the table updates on its own?

[Lee Mac]

The table could be set to automatically update using Fields, although this is an old program and needs a lot of updating.

[WodMarsden]

There anywer i can learn how to update it or is there a newer program?

Where in the world did u get that lisp analizer?

[WodMarsden]

Can any1 help me or teach me how to update this application.My plan is to have the table in a template border and weneva a certain layer is added the lengths are automatically added up and updated in the table weneva they are changed.

I think your best bet would be to look into using Data Extraction. As example look at attached.

Thank you very much for that irneb,is there anyway of making it so it updates itself wen a line is changed in length or a new line is added?

[irneb]

Not immediately, you have to save the DWG and it should pop-up with a DataLink requires update pop-up - which you can click for it to update. Or in the bottom right of the status bar should be an icon with what looks like 2 chain-links: right-click and select "Update All Data Links ...". Otherwise the command is DataLinkUpdate.
