Help: Can't save a FILTER selection set

[tzframpton]

Can someone please tell me why this is? Works great in 2008 but gives me this error in 2009. And yes I have full permission to the directory. Already double checked with my IT Admin.

Bump.......

Where is it trying to write the file, and how do you know this?

If you are trying to update an existing file, is the RO flag set?

[tzframpton]

I guess I don't know exactly where the FILTER command writes whatever file it needs to, but there is a directory on the network labeled "1-AutoCAD" which I have everybody mapped too. Only I have full administrator rights to this directory. I have our Tool Palettes, Templates, ACADDOC.LSP file, etc all in this directory.

 

And I'm not sure what you mean by RO flag? Thanks for the help.

Oh and another thing, I cannot edit my CUI file in that directory either. It says its Read Only when I open the Custom User Interface. Thought it might help ya...

To answer your question posted above this one look at the underlined letters in your quoted remark.

I understand it says Read Only. That's what is weird because I have full administrator rights to the directory in which the CUI file is located. Not only that, but 2008 works just fine.

When I switched from 2004 to 2008 I put the Filter.nfl file in

C:\Program Files\Autodesk\ACADM 2009\Support

 

At the time, there were Filter.nfl files scattered throughout my hard drive. Since eliminating all other copies and putting one early in the “Support File Search Path”, the file has been behaving.
