Dear Friends,

I noticed odd behaviour of ACAD 2002 and custom modified Layouts... If I add a block to a Layout via VBA and then perform few realtime and non-realtime Zooms/Pans, the ACAD crashes. Do I need to implicitly Update the PaperSpace.Blocks collection or is there some other detail I should be aware of? Just for the record, when I manually place the same block manually it doesn't crash and works normally.

Regards,

Doesn't happen here.

I use ActiveLayout.Block.InsertBlock
then I .update the block object

How many is a "few" Zooms/Pans ??

I see this happen, but not having anything to do with VBA or inserting blocks.

Try AUDITing whatever drawing you see this in.

Jorge,

I can't really measure it but I know this shouldn't happen. Just a few simple zooms or pans and... it just crashes with fatal error. I think it's not (that much) up to ACAD itself - it's not happening on all computers and every operating system (somehow Win2000+SP1,2,3 seems more wulnerable to this). Maybe it's up to memory handling, maybe up to video-card driver... I don't know... My guys are testing the software on "clean" machines, but the hardware is not the same.
