problem opening drawing with .net

Here's a noob .net question for ya.

When I open a drawing using the

Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager.Open() method the drawing opens, but does not switch to be the active document. Also, midway through loading the drawing that I ask it to, autocad stops and shows "Macro Name: " in the command line (just after acad.lsp has been loaded.

Here's the code I'm running:

How do I get the document I'm trying to open to be the active document, and how do I avoid the strange hang I seem to be having after acad.lsp loads (the "Macro Name: " issue)?

Any input is welcome,

Thanks,

Joe

In order to activate the target document you would do something like:

Dim docCol As DocumentCollection = Application.DocumentManager

. . . .

targDoc = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager.Open(theDialog.FileName, False)

docCol.MdiActiveDocument = targDoc

WRT the “Macro Name: “ interuption; it sounds like acad.lsp has a S::Startup set to run an unavailable Macro.
