Does anyone know of a Lisp or VBA rountine that will save the output of BCOUNT for an open drawing
to a DOC or TXT file of the same filename?

And has anyone ever heard of an old program or routine that allows one to view and print-out the blocks
in an open drawing? And I'm not referring to Design Center. Thanks all!

Blockwerx from www.cadwerx.net is an excellent Block management tool which does what you ask.

we have a Block report tool in our downloads section on www.resourcecad.com which

will generate a comma delimited (.csv) file consisting of Name, Layer, Rotation angle, if it has attributes or not, Plotstyle name, X,Y and Z scale factor for every block inserted into Modelspace.

Blockwerx does seem like a very good program, but it is also expensive.

BLOCK-REPORT.VLX from your website is indeed a good program!
But it's output is beyond the scope of information needed (at present).
