Maybe you can try something with the command ´field´ and then ´object´. I don´t know if it is possible in the block itself, but in that way you can get the same value as a value of a attribute in a block.
 
Good luck with it.

Is it possible to use a single attribute more than once in a block?  I'm trying to set up a block with items having different text between blocks but common text in the same block.

For example, assume a block with three circles.  In two of the circles, I'd like 'text1' and in the third 'text2'.  When I create a block with attribute 'text2', 'text1' and copy 'text1', the attribute editor displays text1, text1 and text2.  I'd like to only enter in 'text1' once.

I'm using Autodesk Building Systems 2006.
