Data Extraction Table

I've been experimenting with extracting attribute data from dynamic blocks in 2008 (using the extraction wizard). Everything works fine except, when I insert the table into the drawing some of the cells are blank! It's fine in the previews and also all the data is there if I extract to a spreadsheet. Any ideas?

I also have experienced some irregular behavior in 2008 extractions. I have
had greater success when I fine tune the extraction with specific filters.

Ex. I clear the settings for xrefs and radio only model space.
Additionally, I add layer filters incorporated into the wizard dialog box .

Joe,

Thanks for the reply - nice to know it's not me!

I tried a few more variations since posting the query, but with the same results. I've set the extraction modes to only pick blocks with attributes, from model space, etc. and for these trials the blocks are only on Layer 0.

I have also tried the same blocks on AutoCAD Architecture 2009 - the attribute extraction works fine including populating all the cells in the inserted table. Looks as though it's a bug in 2008.
