HI!
I AM HAVING A ISSUE WHERE I START A NEW FILE WITH OUR STANDARD TEMPLATE AND WHEN I REFERENCE, INSERT A BLOCK THE LAYERS THOSE REFERENCES AND BLOCKS ARE ON COME INTO THE DRAWING FROZEN, FROZEN IN THE VIEWPORT, ETC. I HAVE TROUBLE SHOOTED EVERYTHING I COULD THINK OF TO FIX IT, BUT NO LUCK.
ANY ADVICE WOULD EXTREMELY HELPFUL.
THANKS,
MIKE
If you're using layer states, in the layer state manager try unchecking the box that says "Turn off layers not found in layer state".

There seems to be a little bit of confusion here.

This sure sounds strange, the way I understood it is:
1. copy-pasting from another drawing makes the layers turn off
2. xref-fing the drawing brings the layers in turned off
3. inserting the drawing (as a block) brings the layers in turned off
If you have already tried a purge-audit, maybe give dgnpurge a shot (http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/downloads/caas/downloads/content/autocad-C2-AE-dgn-hot... Not saying that will fix it, but I have experienced strange behavior with my drawings in the recent past that were fixed by dgnpurge.
