I would look into your profile and you wil find what you are looking for.

what do you mean by profile?

I am using ACAD 2004, so things may be slightly different, but:

 

Go to 'Tools', 'Options', and click on the 'Profiles' Tab.

 

You will see options to Import and Export Profiles.

 

Hope this Helps.

Lt doesn't use profiles as I remember, does it have migration to copy settings and menu's , I'm not sure if it does or not

[dboy413]

there is not a profile tab on lt 08

[dboy413]

what do you mean by migration is there a menu option for that?

From the help file:

You can migrate your custom settings and files from previous releases of AutoCAD LT (AutoCAD LT 2000 through AutoCAD LT 2005) to AutoCAD LT 2006. It is recommended that you migrate from a previous release when you first use AutoCAD LT 2006 or soon thereafter. Migrating right away prevents you from overwriting files or having to keep track of any custom settings you may make in the new release.
