    I am working with someone who doesn't know how to WBLOCK objects.
    When
    I WBLOCK an object or objects I put everything on Layer "0" and color
    "By Block", so that when I insert the block I can manipulate the
    block
    to what ever Layer/color I need. Question is "Can I change the
    properties of this other guy's blocks(Lines,text) so that they are on
    Layer "0" and by Block with out having to re create these blocks?"
    Thanks

    Thedrawing made with the WBLOCK command is just a drawing. All you need do
    is setup the layers in it to your preference. You do not have to redraw the
    whole thing.

    Go to my website and scroll down to the Free AutoLISP link. You will
    be redirected to a page on which you can scroll down to BF0.lsp. Go
    ahead and download that file. It puts everything that is in the block
    on layer 0 and redefines the block. If you want everything "byblock"
    you should be able to modify the routine for that. It's raw LISP
    code.
