John,
This is a known issue with WBLOCK* (entire drawing) when you have an empty
Layer State dictionary. Basically, at one time, there were layer states in
your drawing, but they were removed. The solution is to create a dummy layer
state and then wblock*. Once you open the wblocked drawing, run Audit "Y"
and you should be good to go.
Regards,
Scott
