Can´t save and use dynamic block with block table

Hello!
I have a problem with blocks.

I use Autocad 2017 and want to create a block with options from a dropdown-menu ("block table").

There is no problem to create the block and test it, it change the attribute (text) and all stuffs like visibility states and so on.

But when I have saved the block ("Save block As") and then insert the block in another drawing, the dropdown does not work.

And even when I try to open and edit the block in seperate window the block table is there but cant open and change it and the attribute (text) is gone...

 

I´m sorry for bad spelling, i´m from sweden 🙂

Attached a image when I test the block and the saved test.dwg file

 

notice: When I used Autocad 2017 LT last year there was no problem at all, have alot of blocks that works. But my workplace updated the software 😞

 

/Thanks in advance

What are the details of the attribute you are trying to use, your broken block and the image don't give any information on that

Hey! 

I´ve uploaded some new images... and a old "block" created with Autocad2017LT in 2016, that still works.

I want to create new blocks with new text and symbols, but now I have Autocad2017.

 

Now I tested to "Save Block As" with the old symbol that worked, but the recently saved block won´t work, a yellow " ! " will popup at the block table.

 

notice: the .dwg has som swedish letters in the text, hope it works for you to test.

 

/thanks

I'm using 2018 and with just an attribute using the same details as in your image, it works without issue. Can you open this block OK?
