Counting the occurences of blocks in a drawing automatically?

Hi,

I was wondering if Autocad has a function to tell me how many times certain blocks occur in my drawings?

At the moment I'm adding them up by hand which can be very long and tedious.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

J

You can do that by using attribute extraction (Tools Menu > Attribute Extraction)

then go through wizard

when add or delete blocks there is a yellow buble downright click on refresh table

BCOUNT from Express Tools.

Or, if you want to count nested - see here:

Ahhh... just noticed you are using LT... bummer
