Hi,

so last guess before I try to simulate your situation

You exploded the DWG1, so you have in this drawing

• a) a BlockTableRecord "ModelSpace" containing one BlockReference "BLOCK1"
• b) a BlockTableRecord "BLOCK1" ... whatever defines this block
• c) a BlockTableRecord "DWG1" containing one BlockReference "BLOCK1"

Now you check "how often is my BlockTableRecord named "BLOCK1 referenced within that database".

Look to the colored words ==> 2

hi alfred

if i look at the BlockTable for the database i see one block called "block1"

did you see my last post with my drawing and my code?

I understand now. thanks

When you explode Dwg1, you're making a copy of the block reference in Dwg1,

so you end up with two block references:

one in the Dwg1 block table record, and one in the *Model_Space block table record.
