Problem 1>
when I import a file I use for part listing (BOM type), the attributes while list correctly when first importing them, behave strangely when I edit them (ate or ddatte).
Some of the attribute prompts are repeated. As an example the list of prompts should read:
Item No.
Description,
Guantity Reqd.
Material,
Comments.
This is replaced with:
Item No.
Description, *
Quantity Reqd. *
Quantity Reqd. *
Description. * (*items repeated)

This is repeated for each item in the list.

Problem 2.
I noticed another strange hapening with these blocks:- I use several drawings in the one file, each with its own border & title block.

When I move one of the drawings that include copied of the part list block, the second copy of the block appears to move with it.

The second copy does not actually move, the second image dissapears whrn you finish the move command.

It's probably no real problem but it is a bit disconcerting, thats all.

I see now what has happened. This happens using DDATTE on blocks that have attributes with duplicate TAGs. Please try to use EATTEDIT command instead.
