Title Block Update Problems

[Halifaxns]

Title Block Update problems. I added atributes to our title block and this works good. How can I update all my drawings with the updated attributes. The update was done on the first drawing of the drawing set. The block is nested in this drawing. I tried to do a bolck swap but if I am in an other drawing I cannot get into the first drawing. Any idea what I am doing wrong??? We are using ACADE 2008

Save the block out to a common folder, then swap block from that folder.
Our title blocks are stored in the Template directory for easy access and
it keeps them seperated from the main symbols and circuits.

The block swap works now . Another problem poped up when I want to edit the attributes the Edit Block Definition screen pops up? Any idea what I am setting up wrong?
Thx Frans H.

The only time I've seen this come up without actually calling it myself is when a block is inserted that has a nested block in it. In other words, the block needs to be exploded in order to edit the attributes. It is like inserting a circuit, if you use the normal insert for inserting the circuit, the circuit comes in and needs exploding to function properly. The insert circuit command does this automatically and more. I'll bet that the block your having issues with is similar. Try exploding it and go from there. You may have to go into the block drawing itself and see if it is a block or the components that make up the block. If it is a block, then explode it so that it will go in a block instead of a nested block. Good luck and I hope this sense or helps a little.
