Delete a Block

I am working on a drawing that i have had sent over and it has some

blocks that are empty. I can't rember how to delete the whole block.

if you know the name of the block, use QSELECT, and use Block as your Object Type, in Properties choose Name, in Operator choose Equals, in Value insert the name of your block.

once happy with all that, press ok, then once they have all been selected, press Delete key

is there a way to select all empty blocks at one time?

Maybe this will work for you.

Its great

Thanks lpseifert

Put this lisp dont delete that blocks

Just listing that blocks

draw something (a line or any easily visible object) and create a block out of it but name it the same as the block you are trying to delete, it will ask to redefine the block, select yes....all the blocks should then be visible and you can delete them

That what I am doing but using BEDIT,

I am searching for a lisp doing that for entire drawing
