Explode block one by one . and recreate the block under same name or new name

[Darkforce_the_ilogic_guy]

I need to break the link in an AutoCAD files to  Factory Assets..  one way to do that is the explode. But the Sell department still want the componemt as blok so it easy to move them around.

Is there a way to expode and recreate the blok as same name or a new name.?. don´t think the name matter for us

if there is a other way to break the link form the blok  to the assets.. that can work as well for us

I'm not familiar with Assets, but would exporting the file using AECTOACAD remove those items? I have never seen a file with those components. Would you be willing to attached at least a simple file with those kind of links

I know nothing about Factory Assets, either, nor the nature of the "link" you mention.  But you may be able to use BlockDupNewName.lsp with its BDN command, >here<.  It will offer the same name with a -1 suffix on the name [or -2 if -1 is already used, etc.], or you can give it whatever name you want.  [But it won't let you keep the same name.]  Read the comments in the file, and at that link.

Once you have redefined one into a new Block name, you can replace all other instances of it in the drawing with any number of Block-replacement routines, such as BlockReplace.lsp with its BRA command, >here<.

EDIT:  It occurs to me that there may be legalities to look into -- copyrights, etc....
