If you ever used "Object Browser" in Acad VBS IDE, you'd find most objects
in Acad object model have a property "Document". So, yes,

AcadBlockReference, of course, are among those objects.

applications data when the record is initially generated?
Some explanation... I have the start of the application I am working on...
presently you can double click in a 'currently open dwgs' list box and
activate the selected dwg. I was hoping to have another list box that holds

add functionality for the user to double click a record in the list box,
have the code activate the object's parent drawing, and zoom in to the
object. Is this possible? ... if so, can someone give me some direction?
