I am having difficulties using the "rtext" feature in 2004. I have a title block set up with rtext in it that displays drawing name, date, etc. Each time I open a drawing with this rtext, I have to enable the rtext. This causes problems because if I forget, I may send plots to the plotter that are incorrect. When the rtext is not enabled, it shows a box with an "x" through it in its place. I never had this problem in 2000i. Any suggestions?

Thanks
 
Hi,
did You regen?
Check REGENAUTO, REGENMODE

You may need to have the rtext autoload when Autocad runs. Put it in your startup suite in "Load Applications" under tools



 
I was actually going to put rtext in my startup suite, but I could not find the file. Is it an *.arx file? If so, do you have any idea which one it is, and where it might be located?

Thanks.
 
jkinnairdgt,

are the other commands working?
Maybe it's better to reinstall the ExpressTools.
