ACAD MEP 2011 Block counting question

[janeplain420 10]

I'm hoping someone can help me with this. I drew and named several different blocks and copied them all around in an HVAC layout. Is there a quick way to count them with MEP 2011? Thanks in advance.

You could use DATAEXTRACTION, FILTER, or LIST (I think, don't use List myself).

I don't use MEP either, but am guessing that you will have those commands too.

 

Or LeeMac has lots of great lisps for free on his site which could be helpful,

perhaps this one would

be a good place to start.

 

Thanks Lee!

Are these standard blocks or AutoCAD MEP objects (aka AEC Objects)?
