Summary: This book is an atrocity to all instructional manuals!!
Review: I am an AutoCAD instructor at a technical college that uses this book for upper level CAD students. The book has errors and omissions throughout, and is almost unusable. Our curriculum was forced to skip some of the chapters because they did not work properly. In short, this is a terrible example of a book that attempts to teach someone how to use AutoCAD, because it would have been necessary for someone to actually proofread the book before it was published.

If amazon.com allowed a 0 star rating, this book would get it. I mean no disrepect to the author, but you must take into account how people will be using this book. It seems you did not do that.

If you are looking to learn how to customize AutoCAD 2000, I would recommend that you look elsewhere. I have had nothing but problems with this book, and will not recommend its continued use.

Summary: Not worth your time
Review: I found this book to be little more than a rehash of the Autocad on-line documentation. It has many errors and the info is incomplete and inconsistent. Anyone who depends on this book as his/her guide for customizing Autocad is in big trouble. This is the most expensive and least valuable of the many Autocad books I have seen. If I had not begun marking in it as I went through it, I would have asked for my money back.

Summary: Not worth your time
Review: I use AutoCad 2000 and Architectural Desktop every day. I am constantly wanting to come up with shortcuts to command sequences. This book lets me do that. When I find a sequence that I am constantly using, Customizing AutoCAD 2000 has helped me to do it. I would recommend this book to any experienced AutoCAD 2000 user.

Summary: General topics treated poorly
Review: Upon trying the first routine on scripts, and as a beginning AutoCAD customizer, I can tell you the author's attempts at conveying his subject matter were much less than first rate. Most of the 'free' customizing resources I have used so far were more clear and much more beneficial than this book. Please look elsewhere for in-depth information. A few topics are treated with some depth but, taken as a whole, it really is not worth your hard-earned money!
