Block Attribute Insert Issue

I have a simple block attribute that recently has stopped working. It is set to insert at 0,0 on the layout tab on my border sheet. It will only show if I select "explode" in the Insert dialog box which of course removes the editable function. I can, however, copy the block from a last know drawing where it inserted properly and paste into a new drawing and it works just fine. 
ATTDIA is set to 1.
ATTDISP is set to normal.

ANNOALLVISIBLE is set to 1.
ATTSYNC can't be used because the block is not inserting.
All appropriate layers are on, (root block is on layer 0).

The dwg is attached if you want to give it a shot.
Any suggestions?

Thank you.

You may need to enter a Value ( for 3 attribute text) in the dialog before inserting it.

Thank you for your time to help me out. ATTREQ setting was the issue. But I am going to make a note of your suggestion as well for future use.
