I need to edit an existing title block (I want to add the attribute  "Scale").  I've gone into Block Editor, copied another attribute and changed it's definition accordingly placed it where I want it to appear in the title block.  However, when I go to utilize the title block, the "Scale" attribute is not part of the Enhanced Attribute Editor dialog box, so I cannot change it.  I do not know how to edit the original Title Block to get it the way I want it.

Also, I tried saving the new drawing as Title Block 1 and tried to copy/paste it into a layout tab and that won't work either - it shows up as the original title block.  I'm so confused.  Wasting time here because I don't know what I'm doing wrong. 

Please forgive my ignorance... and HELP!

Try command WBLOCK and export block, after this you will open it in AutoCAD and edit in Block Editor. Save a work and try insert block to the blank drawing.
 
For editing attributes you can use command BATTMAN.
