Hi All,I have this really strange issue where I am unable to edit blocks properly. Usually when I double click a block it shows the edit block definition dialog along with the name of the block i'm attempting to edit. At the moment when i try to do that, it shows the edit block definition dialog box but does not show the name of the block. To edit I need to scroll to the block i want to edit and choose it that way. Also, all the lisp commands I have set up for importing blocks don't work anymore. When I try to use them all it does is show the insert dialog box.when i try to edit text by double clicking it doesn't go straight into the text editing thing like it use to. it asks me to choose what text i want to edit (even though obviously i want to edit the text i just double clicked!!)I don't know how / why this happened or how I can resolve it. Want to avoid re-installing if possible..Any help would be verrrrry much appreciated!ps - nothing to do with dblclkedit or pickfirst system variables..

Have you tried a REPAIR of the installation?  It is not the same as an uninstall/reinstall.  I don't think you are at that point just yet.

i'll try repair when manager gets back. need password to edit programs on here..another thing i've noticed thats pretty annoying is i can't copy properly. if i control + c on any object it then asks me to highlight object i want to copy - even though its already highlighted while i've pressed control + c. so i need to choose it again and press enter.. same with cut

back in business. honestly have no idea how but its fixed itself..cheers for the help John Connor! i'll help you take on the terminator when the time arrives  

Maybe it was a rogue lisp routine that messed things up.
