you need to reset the scalelist. Theres a lisp floating around theswamp, but I think theres also a native autoCAD command that resets the scalelist. (Scalelistedit I think does the trick)
Thanks for explaining the word "many" to me, it means a lot.

-scalelistedit > reset
if you have too many scales it may not work so you may want to look at this...

even with the sevice patch installed I will still get them but I delete them upon opening of drawing files

add this to your start up.
Code: [Select]
     
(command "-scalelistedit" "R" "Y" "E" ) ; DELETES MEMORY SUCKING XREF SCALELIST
(command "-purge" "R" "*" "n"); Purges all annoying RegApps
I + XI = X is true ...  ... if you change your perspective.

I no longer CAD or Model, I just hang out here picking up the empties beer cans
