Converting 3D polylines into 2D polylines within multiple blocks simultaneously

I posted this in the C3D forum and someone recommended I post it here as well, so here is my dilemma.

 

I'm running a secondary program within C3D that requires blocks in order to function.  These blocks are actually outlines of framing panels, so they're rectangles of different widths and lengths.  In order for the program to run, each block must have 2 requirements.

 

1.  The elements within the block must be a closed polyline with only vertices at the 4 corners

2.  The closed polyline must be a 2D polyline

 

I use another program to export the .dxf/.dwg drawing in order to get my blocks, but when I open the blocks they are made up of 3D polylines and not 2D polylines.  I'm aware of the "convert 3D polylines to 2D polylines" function, but that would require me to open up each block individually and edit that way.  Some of these files have a few thousand blocks so manually editing them isn't feasable.

 

So, my question...Is there a way to change the linework within multiple blocks from a 3D polyline to a 2D polyline without having to open up each block indivually?  Hopefully my questions makes sense.  Thanks.
