(defun c:acc ()

This code is not finding attributes to change.
I can list the object,objects.
It always lists attribute definition.
This code can not seem to in order to change attribute colors globally.
I was using 2004, now Autocad 2008.

ideas?

I can list the object,objects.
It always lists attribute definition.

If it lists as an "Attribute Definition" it is not yet an "Attribute".  To become and "Attribute", an "Attribute Definition" must be part of a block definition.

Still no.

Did the way attributes are defined change between 04 and 08?

Do you simply want to change the color of each attribute in the current drawing?

[STEVEDALLAS]

yes, to a particular color number or bylayer.
