Hi,

I have a layer control lisp file called layer.mns that I customized
extensively to
control layers on our projects.

works fine till......
all my layer names have no spaces. For example 1-wall, 1-furniture, ect.

one of my employees started a new project and invented a ton of new layers
to control
other entities. I understand why, but in trying to add his new layers, I
find a problem.

his layers have a space in the name. for example:
1plan cabinet
when I try to add this layer name to the lsp file, it only recognizes the
1plan and not the "space" cabinet.
Does he need to re-enter all his layers without spaces, or is there a symbol
that represents a space
in the layer name in the lsp file?

Thanks (hope it makes sense)

here is an example of what I'm trying to say.

[First Floor]^C^C^P(setq
lyyc"1"lyyr"border,*ff,*fp,1");lctrl;-la;off;1-opt*;-la,th,uplans
1-2*,on,uplans 1-2*;;^P
this one does not work...see the space between uplans and 1

[First Floor]^C^C^P(setq
lyyc"1"lyyr"border,*ff,*fp,1");lctrl;-la;off;1-opt*;-la,th,uplans1-2*,on,upl
ans1-2*;;^P
this one does if I rename the layers (don't really wanna do that)

thanks,
jojo
