I have a user here that cannot WBlock anything out, nor can they copy/paste. I'm stumped, anybody have a clue as to whats going on?

[deegeecees]

No.

I don't think I missed any of the obvious settings.

This is really strange.

Here's the scenario:

AutoCAD 2002 vanilla w/modified menu structure (Not modded by me)
WBlock command has not been undefined
All commands are in tact

Have you tried shutting down AutoCAD and restarting it?

Behavior:

Command: wblock

(dialog opens) select objects, define base point, set file name and dir, (convert to block/retain/delete does not work)

nothing happens.


Then tried a command line call:

Command: -WBLOCK

 

Enter name of existing block or

[= (block=output file)/* (whole drawing)] <define new drawing>:

Specify insertion base point: INT

of

Select objects: Specify opposite corner: 847 found

 

Select objects:

Error writing/closing file.
