I'm looking for a piece of software that makes a small box for you with the vector outline. You can input the width, length and height and it does the rest! I saw it on this Forum a week or two ago but can't find it now! Please help with a look if you know where it is. Thanks.EDITED: 9 Jan 2007 by HARVEY-ONLY

Ben,
I wonder if it could have been one of the macros created by Carl Sewell or Shaddy?

I remember a program being pointed out, but cannot remember it. It was about four months ago. (I design my own when needed.)
I just did a search and while the word 'box' is now not flagged as an exception, it still does not find it. Boolean algebra also does not seem to work either. Groan. I thought we had it fixed.

Nope, not one of mine. Shaddy has a few on his website, but it's not on his main page and I don't see a link there to the page that has it. I'd rather not give that link out since there is some reason why he's not making it public.
Roy Brewer also had a link to downloadable software that was on one of the other forums. I think he posted that in response to a VBA macro post but I couldn't find it. I don't have much luck with the forum search........

Thank you Carl.
If I remember a particular reference, I can usually track down a thread.
This one isn't ringing a bell.

Dave -- that's it exactly! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I have a whole bunch of boxes to make coming up with many different sizes. This will drastically shorten the design time. Thanks again

Hey Dave,
Way cool. How in the world did I miss all of this? It must have all happened when I had my head in the sand.
Best part is it is postcardware ( how cool is that) ...they can expect one from Maui.
