Can I delete an object in event handler

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to write an event handler to edit block attributes while user

double-clicked specific type of block.

Within the double-click event handler, I access the block by using the

Pickfirst selection set, then check the object type that match what I want.

For example a Block named "CAP SCREW" have 4 attributes:
NO , REMARK, LENGTH, BORE_DEPTH.

But because there may be some block with old definition which just have

the 1st 2 attributes. In this case I need to redefine the block and then
insert

a newly defined block at the same position. Finally the old block needs to

be deleted.

**** NOW I HAVE THE PROBLEM TO DELETE THE OLD BLOCK

WITHIN THE EVENT HANDLER ****

Can anyone teach me how to solve the problem.

Or even don't have to delete the old block, may be there is a way to
redefine

my existing block but I don't know.

 

I'm not sure you can do this. You can't delete an object that fired an
event. Have you considered just updating all the blocks?

Hope that helps,
