batch process interrupted

Hi all,

I'm trying to batch process my drawings.

Usually it works fine, but now the process is interrupted.

I use a batch file, a script and a lisp.

I load the lisp in my script, but its like after doing the lisp it stops going on with the script.

Batch file:

 
FOR %%V IN (*.DWG) DO START /W "c" "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2011\acad.exe" %%V /nologo /b "C:\Documents and Settings\mlete\My Documents\My Scripts\fixmlist.scr"
FOR %%V IN (*.BAK) DO DEL %%V

Script: fixmlist.scr

model
(load"mlistupd")
_qsave
quit

Lisp: mlistupd.lsp

(command "filedia" 0)
(setvar "osmode" 0)
(command "clayer" 0)
(command "limits" off)
;;-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(setq ss (ssget "x" (list (cons 0 "*line"))))
(command "erase" ss "")
;;-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(command "clayer" "ISO_LIN_MAT_FRA")
(command "line" "0,0" "0,5.5" "")
(command "line" "10,0" "10,5.5" "")
(command "line" "22,0" "22,5.5" "")
(command "line" "89,0" "89,5.5" "")
(command "line" "103,0" "103,5.5" "")
(command "line" "0,5.5" "180,5.5" "")
;;-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(command "-style" "STANDARD" "ARIAL.TTF" "0" "1" "0" "no" "no")
(command "ltscale" 1)
(command "-layer" "co" "7" "ISO_TEX_MAT" "")
;;-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(command "filedia" 1)
(setvar "osmode" 1)
(command "clayer" 0)

Anyone see what i don't?

From your script it looks like AutoCAD has to open and close for each drawing - am I right?

Why not just process all the drawings using the script? If you Open and Close the drawings using the script in a single AutoCAD session, AutoCAD doesn't have to close and the drawings are processed a lot faster.

These may help you if you decide to go this route:
