I guess you've never heard the phrase "full disclosure" have you?

 

I'm out of ideas for the moment. I'll think on it.

If you find any way Please let me know

Thank you

..maybe reinstall and repair the Autocad software will be the last resort..?!

I'd suggest trying the Repair option first. If that does not work then do a reinstall. I was hoping there was a solution that would avoid a reinstall.

I'm a little curious.

 

What is it that you're actually trying to copy / paste from one drawing to another? Text? Lines? Hatch?

 

My suggestion is that rather than copy / past is that you create a block using the wblock command. Select only the desired objects and give it an insertion point. You can even go as far as to open the new block in a new session and purge & audit the new dwg

 

Then insert this new block into your other drawing using the insertion point that you gave it. Exploding the block once inserted is option, and may not actually help.

 

I belive that by doing it this way you may be able flush out any erros that may be in the objects that you are trying to copy / paste. At the very least, if there are errors, you may be able to narrow it down to what it is by having less objects to worry about.

 

Let me know if this helps. Other thoughts?

 

Cheers

Hi Kerno,

Thank for help me about the problem of Copy/paste. I know we can make a write block but even I just copy and paste a text in to another drawing it still take a while. I did not get the problem before. If you can have another ways please.

Thanks

i am also having a problem.

Hi,

you need to run 'Scale list Cleanup' Utility.

 

Install AutoCAD 2008 Service Pack 1 or corresponding service packs for AutoCAD-based products. The Scale List Cleanup Utility repairs files affected before the necessary service pack was installed.

 

The exe file 'should' be in C:\Program Files\AutoCAD 2008. You can select either dwgs or whole job folders.

This HAS worked for us.
