Whats Up with the Handle?

[Grenco]

Hi all,

I'm using a MS ACCES database for a partlist. I keep it up to date with the handles on each item in my drawing.

Everything works fine. Except sometimes, autocad gives all the entity's new handles. So I lost the link between my entity and my record in acces.

Why/when does autocad rename all handles?

I can't recreate the problem because it takes place randomly. Most of the time the handles stays the same. But sometimes it changes and my databse is empty. :?

Thanks! But Hmmm.. That's a clear discussion, NOT :wink:

Conclusion for me: Handle stays the same and if object is deleted the handle is not given to new elements. Copying wil create a new handle for the new objects. I can't find anything of my problem. Perhaps i'm reading over it?

Anyway. My handles HAVE changed! But they don't do it often. Only with some kind of usage it changes i guess...
