Thanks for your reply rod. I want to one thing. From where did you get the abbreviation "AC" for placing active cell . Is there any list of abbreviations for other commands of MicroStation? From where do I get that?
In the help if you go the the tool index and look up for example cells you will get a list of keyins for that command.

I recommend that you use the full key-in in your script file. The abbreviated commands exist to make experienced users faster.
If you use the full key-in in your script it becomes easier to maintain. Six months from now, you'll look at your script and ask yourself "What does AC mean?" If you use the full command it will be simpler to understand.
