I'm looking to identify some steel plate known as Red Diamond - it looks like it says either "146" or "14G" after it. Is there modern day an equivalent? I believe it to be a wear resistant plate material from some time ago. Hope someone can help - I've searched the internet but no luck so...

No - I didn't apply the patch as the version of the current file was more recent. Yes you can insert it as a block into a new drawing - this is one way I've found to get around it. Thanks for your thoughts.

OK - not sure if I follow all of the above, but I've exploded all entities by selecting everything, then did it again. After this, I'm able to edit copy, edit paste...but I guess this wasy I've lost any block groupings, but at least I'm able to copy!! Many thanks!!

Did you do so using "Edit copy," "edit paste" like you might if pasting into another drawing?

Thanks guys - but no luck - all layers are on, non frozen, zoom extents does not work. paste special does not work either. A real puzzle!

I'm on 2009, but I'm not sure about the customer, or the people who supplied it to them - could be an older version I guess.

On one certain drawing received from a customer, I am having problems using "Edit, Copy" and "Edit, Paste" to copy parts of this drawing to another. When I perform this action, nothing gets pasted to the new drawing, and indeed won't work within the drawing in question either. Is there some...

Many thanks Geronimo - another Autocad command burried deep in the system....you either know it or you don't I guess - I would not even have thought to look for such a variable! I've set the variable to 0, so this should cure all future problems. Many thanks for this. - a big help!

Thanks ActiveSolar05 - I think you may be right with the max number of characters, but even with the server\drive\path\directiory\filename.ext the characters were nowhere near 256, but probably easily in excess of 100 characters. I guess there must be some upper limit and I must have just been...

Thanks TCarpenter1 - I have done the service pack thing, but this made no difference. What I have discovered was the directory structure I was working in had folder names and file names with quite long descriptions. When I rename them to make them shorter, I don't have the problem. It's almost...

In Autocad 2007, I seem to have problems when plotting a drawing off our network - it usually crashes the program. with a fatal error message and fails to plot. However, if I save the drawing to my c: drive before I plot, then it will plot OK and no errors. I feel it might be something to do...
