ps,the block is not a dynamic block.

Hi,
This has been asked before, something like this should help:
Public Shared Function GetEffectiveName(ByVal blkref As BlockReference, ByVal acTrans As Transaction) As String Dim btr As BlockTableRecord btr = acTrans.GetObject(blkref.DynamicBlockTableRecord, OpenMode.ForRead) Return btr.Name End Function

Hi,
I think you should take a look to the developer documentation, this link will help you to understand the object hierarchy in AutoCAD: Hierarchy
May be I'm wrong, but I think you can't create create a dynamic block definition with .NET API. Another thing is a block reference, and there is no problem creating one and driving its parameters with the .NET API.

i attached the dwg file
the block name contains "ISO A1"
and the block description contains "ISO A1" too
i just want to get the blockreforence which contains 'ISO A1" , by block name or by block descrption.
