how to globally change text color to by layer in autocad 2008

[noorb]

what version of autocad you are using ?? am using 2007

anyway thanks a lot

I'm using 2012.

You could always use QSELECT then follow this up with the CHANGE command and the Color option.

i tried this way but it takes too much time ! i loved this lisp but it doesn't work for me ..

is there anyway to modify it so we can use it in autocad 2007 ??

thanks

Post a copy of your drawing in 2000 format and I will test the LISP in 2000 when I get home this evening.

hello ,

the drawing is too big so i deleted most of it , anyway the layer i want to change is RE-PROFILE-TEXT the mtext is in the yellow and pink and green colors , i want them to be bylayer .. but when i used the lisp attached in this thread it didn't work for me it eats the last character of the text ..
if you can help me with this i will be appreciated )

thanks so much

i used the link attached above but unfortunately it didn't work ! what i need to do is to change the color of the mtext's text to bylayer instead of picking each mtext and change the color in the text's edit

DDCHTEXT was written for Release 13, 14 and 2000. The OP is using AutoCAD 2007. Will it still work?
