Are you looking for a count of all blocks?

Since AutoCAD LT cannot utilize lisp that rules out BCount.  How about this add-on program:

no. i actually want to place a living clone of their instance in a table in linear manner. i want to create a 2 column table with a textual description and the  actual block next to it.

Thanks

I think it would be better if you created a custom Tool Palette and populated it with your blocks.
