The VBA IDE allows you to edit, run, and debug programs interactively. Although the VBA IDE is invoked only when AutoCAD is running, it can be minimized, opened, and closed independent of the AutoCAD Application window.
VBALOAD Loads a VBA project into the current AutoCAD session. VBAMAN Displays the VBA Manager allowing you to view, create, load, close, embed, and extract projects. VBANEW Creates a new project. VBAPREF Displays the Options dialog box and allows you to set VBA-specific options for the current session. VBARUN Runs a VBA macro from the Macros dialog box or from the AutoCAD command line. VBASTMT Executes a VBA statement from the AutoCAD command line. VBAUNLOAD
Unloads a VBA project from the current AutoCAD session.
If the VBA project is modified but not saved, the user is asked to save it with the Save Project dialog box (or command line equivalent).
