read only blocks

[Anonymous]

I am new to using AutoCAD LT 2017. When I create a block, or when I have tried to open existing blocks in a drawing that someone else created, or a block from the AutoCAD tool pallet, it doesn't matter which, I get the response:

BLOCKEDITOR = 0 (read only)

I have checked the BLOCKEDITLOCK and made sure it is set to 0. I also tried WBLOCK, which I am not familiar with but it didn't seem to do anything.

Does anyone know how I can change this? I'm assuming it's a setting somewhere, I'm just not sure where...

What I would try is to click on the block once then on the ribbon it should change and give you a couple options. !. edit block in place or the other is block edit in block editor. try either one and see if you are getting the same issue,
