Select text inside closed polylines and define block atributtes with that text.

[Anonymous]

I have an floor-plan drawing with several rooms defined by an enclosed polyline. There are several text annotations inside each polyline (room-number, room-name, etc).
How can i make a routine thats scans the drawing, builds a selectionset that finds each polyline (resides on a specific layer) and creates a block (room_stamp) with attributes corresponding to those annotations. 
E.g.: for every room it would insert the block "room_stamp" inside the polyline, grab the text inside the polyline which belongs to the layer "room_name" and change the attribute "room_name" inside the block to match it.

Any help would be apreciated as I am just starting with LISP routines.

@Anonymous,

I believe I have a rough solution working for your request. See ScreenCast video.

Thanks everybody for the insights and discussion. We've been working a solution with @devitg.

 @JBerns your solution looks good ! Would you mind sharing the LISP routine to see how you did it?

Hello Jerry, i am looking down on the same problem and can't seem to get the right script for the job. It seems that you have figured it out in this post, any chance to see the script?

@Anonymous,

I have attached the code development as it was presented to @Anonymous .

You will need to adjust block names, layer names, attribute definition names, etc. to suit your need. 

You will need to change your block definition to match the code or edit the code to match your block.

I hope you find this helpful.
