Thanks for all the useful tips but what i really want to do is this. EXAMPLE: Double click on the "point" icon and create a point of some escription. Hit OK The point icon returns automatically and continues to do so every time you click OK. I want to do this from the command line

PETTY I KNOW BUT HOW DO YOU TURN SOUNDS OFF IN CATIA. IT IS REALLY IRRITATING LISTENING TO THEM WHILST LISTENING TO MUSIC. IT OF COURSE ISN'T JUST A CASE OF JUST MUTING WINDOWS AS THE MUSIC WOULD ALSO BE MUTED. CHEERS
