  • Hi Mark,

    it seems Dustin shared valuable ideas already, so just a few more comments:

    I recommend to follow this forum best practices, because to say "help" without any information about used products and their versions, blocks any efficient communication.

    how i can get the mbe send command for this

    By "mbe command" you mean you want to use MicroStation BASIC? It's the tool that is treated as obsolete (and recommended to not be used) for last 15 years. Use MicroStation VBA instead of BASIC.

    iwant to put in function keys but i cannot find the cannot find the command

    At first, as Dustin mentioned, it's good to say what product do you use on top of MicroStation (when we will assume you use MicroStation).

    What often help is to record MicroStation VBA macro and to check the code, key-in is often there. And when not, it can help to analyze the situation better.

    there is no modules menubar

    Unfortunately the picture tells nothing, because it's not visible what is in Main menu tree. And from your original picture it's not clear whether there are 2 menus (MicroStation and application) or it's one long menu, wrapped to 2 lines.

    When an application is "V8 compliant", it provides menu definition in dgnlib, so it's should be visible in Customize dialog. But the menu can be created using MicroStation resources, and in such case menu is in fact "blackbox".

    yes i only want to have easy access for key in

    The first step always has to be study the application documentation. When it 's written professionally, it should provide a list of key-ins.

    there is no command how to query command?

    As I mentioned above, try to record MVBA macro and check what code is generated.

    With regards,
