Door Tag not pulling in correct DoorObject:Number

 

Hi there,

 

I've begun having a very frustrating issue in AutoCAD Architecture 2014. Up until recently, I have had no issues with door tags and everything seemed to work fine.

 

I number all my doors using the DoorObjects:Number Property Set, and the Door Tag I am using has been set up to reference that number in the tag. So I start out with a normal door placed in a wall:

Notice the door is defined as 108 in the DoorObjects:Number Property Set:

So I go to my Tool Palette and select Door Tag:

After selecting the door, the window pops up asking if I'd like to edit any of the properties the tag will be referencing. Not here that again, the door is defined as 108:

When I place the tag, it enters 001 for the number in the tag:

So clearly it's not referencing the correct property set anymore. This is consistent for every door, in every file, for every machine in our office. I'm not sure what changed recently to break the link, or how to go about reconnecting it to pull the correct information in from the DoorObjects:Number Property Set.

 

Any help?

 

Thanks!

Also realized I should have included a test file. Here you go.

Hey, thanks for checking the file for me. Just after I posted, I found this post from a few years back describing a very similar issue, with community members also stating that the file seemed to work fine from their end. The solution was to simply restart AutoCAD. After rebooting, everything seems to be in working order.
