block numbering 1

[jlschpa]

Question:
Is there a way to automatically and sequentially number individual blocks within a drawing as they are being placed or to sequentially number blocks after placement without having create a text block for each one ?

Yes. With a lisp or VBA routine. I assume your block has a single attribute that is its "number"? A routine to edit blocks as you select them, with a starting number and increment, would be fairly easy. It would give you more flexibility than one that increments as you insert, allowing renumbering after the order needs to change.
Also you might search the various lisp sites, you might find something that works for you.
