How is XData Set/Get using ObjectDBX?

    The following line returns an empty array:

    MyObject.GetXData "MYXDATA", avarXDataType, avarXDataValue

    This worked with AutoCAD 2004 and ObjectDBX. It does not work with AutoCAD 2005 and ObjectDBX.

    Should work the same.
    Maybe your MyObject is empty to begin with
    or MYXDATA has a spelling error.
    Check your references and your dims

    If you want to check the actual object's data (simply and reliably) from the
    command line, try the following:

    (entget (car (entsel)) '("*"))

    will show all of the data, albeit in DXF type format

    It turned out to be a misplaced 'Exit For' statement.

    The loop exited on the first object that did not contain the particular XData Application.
