    RText does not reload when drawing is opened

    Hi,

    I have some RText in a drawing that does not reload when the drawing is
    reopened. The RText does update as soon as I select RText from the express
    menu. Is there a way to get AutoCAD R2000i to load the object enables
    automatically when a drawing is opened with RText or Wipeout entities?

    A google search of the newsgroups sent me to a FAQ site that suggested:
    Q: Why is AutoCAD unable to find an object enabler for WIPEOUT or
    RTEXT when I open a drawing?
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    A: Reinstall the express tools to update the registry so AutoCAD can find
    the appropriate ARX files to load when it encounters a WIPEOUT or RTEXT
    object. See Knowledge Base articles TS43616
    (http://support.autodesk.com/getdoc.asp?id=TS43616 ), TS64921
    (http://support.autodesk.com/getdoc.asp?id=TS64921 ) and TS59037
    (http://support.autodesk.com/getdoc.asp?id=TS59037 ) for more information.

    But none of these helped.

    The same used to happen with wipeout but I found an object enabler on the
    web (Autodesk document ID: DL101173) and that seems to work with wipeout but
    not RText.

    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Regards.

    Another limitation to an add-on that's not a core command :smileysad:
