I have got an arx that behaves well in Autocad 2000, 2000i, 2002, and 2004. Now in Autocad 2005, strange things happens (the arx has been recompiled with the ObjectARX 2005 libraries). The arx does as follows: * listens to commands with a subclass of AcEditorReactor * if the command is DDATTE, the AcEditorReactor subclass sets a global value that indicates OK * after the user has edited the attribute fields, a database reactor (subclass of AcDbDatabaseReactor) then checks the name of the block being edited, and if the block name is registered (in a xml schema), the arx then contacts an application server for storing the values of the attributes of the block in a database. This has worked flawlessly, as I mentioned, in all Autocad versions until now, with Autocad 2005. The "bug" in Autocad behaves like this: * after having opened the block for editing the attributes with DDATTE, Autocad 2005 inserts by itself the string value ;3542x in front of the attribute that was edited. The arx ships the attribute values to the app server OK, BUT now with this annoying ;3542x value in front of every newly edited attribute! Has anybody got any idea what is going on? Thanks in advance, Rolf C Stadheim
