I tried closing and reopening all these dwgs at different times, so I thought I'd try restarting autocad. Closed it. Reopened it, it got as far as the outline for the ribbon and said I was missing a dwl file and wouldn't go further. I went to task manager and force closed autocad. Tried starting it again. This time it said I was missing the same file but then got stuck with just the title bar loaded that says "autocad 2017" at the top and it also loaded the big A in the top left and that was it. Let it go 5 minutes. Nope, frozen. Task manager wouldn't force close it. I had to restart computer to get rid of the half loaded autocad. Upon restart Autocad loaded fine, no warning about a missing dwl file. Now my original file that I attached to the forum (minus that screwed up font and some other tweaks) will let me put that block on a palette. I've been messing with this file off and on all day. I have no idea what the solution was or possibly a combo of things I tried or things suggested. Maybe the restart was all it took.
I guess sometimes when tech support says unplug it and plug it back in that is actually the solution. I'm pretty sure no one has ever said that before.
Thanks for all the help. The case is solved, but the why is still a mystery.
