I am on AutoCAD 2002. I was able to migrate the express tools from 2000 and they worked fine. This was years ago.

Now all of a sudden the "burst" command does not work. Also the same command from the drop down express menu "explode atributes to text" does not work.

Here is what I've been getting:

Command: burst
Select objects: 1 found

Select objects:

|

None found.
Command:

I'll select the block, enter then nothing.

Anyone experience this and found a solution.

Thanks in advance,
Spike

May be you should reload express tools. Since you said years ago, have you changed the operating system from 32 to 64 bits
 
-Purge Regaps
Audit the file
save, open using Recover (not open)
try again.

What is Regaps? I can't seem to find it.

Thanks

Tried to reinstall the tools to no avail. Still on Windows XP.
 
When you type in "-purge" there is an option to purge regapps.
