How do I redefine a block with attributes that will force the attribute information to show up on a specific layer?

Does the command ´battman´ help where you can edit everything of the attributes?

It didn't seem to help.  I have always been able to modify the block and the attribute within the drawing but unable to wblock the change so that I can re-insert the block in other drawings and have the the block redefined within the other drawings so that the attributed information now shows up on the layer that I want it to.

Then, after you make the change in the block editor, you will need to run the ATTSYNC command to update all instances of the block in your drawing.
