Recent files

[Jowie Tadz]

Good day, i have this VLX file which adds another tab in menu bar in autocad, that show the 26 recent opened files, but now my problem is, our company implement some policy on domain that restrict reading vlx files, and i cant use it anymore, is there any way to convert this file to a CUI file or some other files type

 

Thanks

No. But why do you need this? AutoCAD will show you up to the last 50 recent files, this is built into the Application Menu.

Try this 

 

; Autocad
(setq index 0 lst '()) 
(while (setq fname (vl-registry-read (strcat "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\" (vlax-product-key) "\\Recent File List\\") 
                   (setq valuename (strcat "File" (itoa (setq index (1+ index)))))
				   )
	   )
(setq lst (cons fname  lst))
)
(setq lst (reverse lst))

; Note Bricscad uses recent paths
(setq index 0 lst '()) 
(while (setq fname (vl-registry-read (strcat "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\" (vlax-product-key) "\\Recent Paths\\")
                   (setq valuename (strcat "File" (itoa (setq index (1+ index)))))
				   )
	   )
(setq lst (cons fname  lst))
)
(setq lst (reverse lst))
