Attribute value extraction

    Hi,

    I don't know if this has been discussed here before or not, but I need to,
    using lisp select an attribute, and extract the value to a string. I would
    like to use something like the stock autocad command -attedit, where you
    actually select the attribute, not the block containing the attribute. I
    then want to use the string in a dialog box, using the set_tile function. I
    was just wondering if this is possible, and if so how I would go about doing
    it.

    Thank you,

    You can select the attribute by using (nentsel.. then extract the value of that using the dxf code 1. Hope this gets you going in the right direction.
