Great AutoCAD Reference

This is one of the best references on the market. To my understanding, this is the only one that outlines the internal data structure within AutoCAD. This is definitely a "must-have" for any AutoCAD automation developer. I only wish someone would publish the same information for the newer revisions. Most (if not all) of this should still apply though.

Excellent Reference

This is a great reference book to have around especially for those who program AutoCAD in more than just one language. If you need to customize or create applications for AutoCAD using VB, VBA, ObjectARX, ObjectDBX, or AutoLISP you will benefit from the information in this book. This book helped me get a firmer grasp of Symbol Tables, Dictionaries, XData, and Custom Objects. Just check out the table of contents. Each chapter has something to offer even the most experienced ARX or VB programmer.
