Thanks for adding the WDL. It was helpful.
I looked at the titleblock. The reason DRAFTER and TITLE not showing up is because these attributes do not exist on the drawing.
I can guess that you want DRAWN=Line6 not DRAFTER. As For TITLE, it is set for the Drawing Description Line 1 (TITLE=DD1) but you do not have any attribute on the drawing for this information. If you do not plan on including it on the titleblock, you can remove it from the WD_TB attribute.
If you correct these things, the titleblock should update. Also keep in mind that if nothing has changed or the fields are blank, you will get the "No Change" response for all the titems in the WD_TB.
I hope this helps.
Justin,
I went through and fixed the titleblock and created a titleblock template for use to use to create new drawings.
The problem was that there was a lot of "garbage" existing in the drawing; hidden wire numbers, blocks not needed, layers not needed, and the big killer, an extra WD_TB that was hidden which was interupting the WD_TB that you were trying to modify.
If you need to make any changes, open the .dwt and edit teh tileblock using "Edit Block" from within the Block Editor Window, yo uwill be able to modify the attributes for the titleblock. You can even run "Project\Title Block Setup" from within it.
Just Close and QSave when finished
I hope this helps.

When I used the titleblock, I saw that there were two WD_TB calls.
I inspected the drawing and discovered that there were several layers in the titleblock (which are not needed) and 2 of them were turned off. After turning them back on, I saw about 50 wire numbers and an extra WD_TB. This was what blocking the Title Block Update.
I purged all the extra items from the Title Block and resaved it. I aslo removed the references to the two attributes that did not exist. That cleared up the problem and it updated just fine.
