Thanks andrew.. but this is not the tool I'm looking for.
First I want my offset.. perpendicular to the other.

Thanx for bringing voparallel to my attention. I have tried other offset
utils before, but this one actually works just like the AutoCAD offset

It has become the 7th util in my "must have" MBX directory.
A big thanx to Greg Driver for sharing it with the rest of us.

Big thanks for writing it, our Land Surveyor thinks it's a godsend. I

There have been times on the list where feathers have been ruffled by wrongly
acknowledged or misused mbx's (fair enough).
If it helps, think of it more like me watching my back, not patting yours. :)
