What JOSEPH said is truly the thing you are ought to do. First PURGE the drawing. Then COPY the Block to a new drawing, RENAME it to say some xx name, and bring it back to the present drawing. This will help you with resolving the problem]]> Tue, 14 Jun 2011 08:12:26 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=6067&PID=15733&title=cant-insert-block-in-drawing#15733 <![CDATA[Can't insert block in drawing : Try maybe &#039;purge all&#039;...that...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=6067&PID=15721&title=cant-insert-block-in-drawing#15721 Author: tulip3D

Try maybe 'purge all'...that may delete any references left behind.]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 22:06:59 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=6067&PID=15721&title=cant-insert-block-in-drawing#15721 <![CDATA[Can't insert block in drawing : An other possibility is that you...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=6067&PID=15713&title=cant-insert-block-in-drawing#15713 Author: philippe JOSEPH

An other possibility is that you have created a bloc in wich there is already a bloc with the same name.]]> Mon, 13 Jun 2011 15:52:08 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=6067&PID=15713&title=cant-insert-block-in-drawing#15713 <![CDATA[Can't insert block in drawing : I supose that in the file that...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=6067&PID=15712&title=cant-insert-block-in-drawing#15712 Author: philippe JOSEPH

I supose that in the file that you are trying to insert a bloc name is the same as the file name, wich is not possible.

Open the file "Block FWDS_FP" and remame the bloc of the same name of the file, save it and retry to insert the file.
 
When you have inserted a complete file into an other the file becomes a bloc.
