Since Draworder doesn't work most of the time, why would you want an
equivalent?

Get the objects definition, delete it, and recreate it.

FWIW, DRAWORDER does work most of the time for us. In fact, I can't
remember the last time it didn't.

I wouldn't argue with your suggestion, though. Recreating would likely be a
much better route to take.

Don't use Xref's I take it?

I would recommend searching for Xdata attached to the object and make sure
that the "recreated object" has the same data. I have been burnt many times
when the Xdata has been lost.

Just my $0.02 worth

Yes, quite often, but I keep the draworder stuff out of that. Once I
realized that limitation I just avoided it. I put it in my 'just don't do
that' file. 😉

Glad you brought it up, though, as I forgot it was an issue.
