Inserting Blocks

When I insert a block into a drawing for the first time I browse for the file name to insert it because the actual name of the block is not listed in the drop down box. It inserts fine but the attributes that I have set do not work properly. (I am not prompted with any of the questions that I have set.) When inserting the block after the first time, I see the name of the block (not the file name) in the drop down box and use this to insert the block. This works flawlessly.

 

Why won't it work that way the first time I insert the block?

 

Any help is very appreciated

only blocks that exist in the drawing are in the drop down box. If you have them in a pathed folder you can just type theor name without browsing.

 

As for the attributes - no idea. There is a setting that rejects the attribute box (ATTREQ) but that would always work, not just on first insertion.
