Block Attributes vs. AutoCad Version

[neekcotrack]

I work on AutoCAD:

~2004

~2005

~2008

~2008 MEP

~2009 MEP

 

I am just resently starting to work in 2009 MEP. I made a diesel macro, so it would always change the blocks attributes to 0 from the tool pallete. For some reason only in 2009 so far the code below does not work now:

 

-attedit;;;;;L;;A;0;;

 

For some reason it wants me to make it like this to work:

 

-attedit;;;;;L;A;0;;

 

This is not good because I have a network Tool Palette that all five of the Cads are working off of. The only way I could fix it, was to make the blocks attributes that I needed to change was, to change there code from diesel macro to lisp. Some reason that worked, but the general settings in the properties of the block did not work with the lisp. So I have to set the layer,linetype, ect.... in the lisp also.

 

Does anyone know why the diesel does not work in 2009 but all others so far.

 

Thanks in advance for everything. Any help or advice will get me that much closer.
