(defun C:BLAY ()
(if (setq ESEL (entsel "\nSelect Block: "))
(progn
(setq EOBJ (vlax-ename->vla-object (car ESEL)))
(if (wcmatch (vla-get-objectname EOBJ)
"AcDbBlockReference,AcDbMInsertBlock"
)
(vlax-for OBJ
(vla-item (vla-get-blocks
(vla-get-activedocument
(vlax-get-acad-object)
)
)
(vla-get-name EOBJ)
)
(vla-put-layer OBJ "0")
(vla-put-linetype OBJ "continuous")
(vla-put-color OBJ 256)
)
