2 questions: 1) Is it a good habit to purge all unused Appids or there are some side effects? 2) I am still looking for a method to rename a text STYLE with null name (2 . "") and than purge it: Command: (setq stdata (entget (tblobjname "style" ""))) ( (-1 . <Nome entità: 400a45f8>) (0 . "STYLE") (330 . <Nome entità: 400a4108>) (5 . "273961CE31FF") (100 . "AcDbSymbolTableRecord") (100 . "AcDbTextStyleTableRecord") (2 . "") ; >>> null name (70 . 1) (40 . 0.0) (41 . 1.0) (50 . 0.0) (71 . 0) (42 . 150.0) (3 . "ltypeshp.shx") (4 . "") ) Command: (entmod (subst '(2 . "STILExxx") (assoc 2 stdata) stdata)) nil Any workaround? -- this is an example of the old empty applications in a drawing: Application: AMDT_DM_ADJ was deleted.

I do it regularly, have not had any problems. That is not a text style, it's a reference to a loaded shape file.
Look in the DXF reference | Tables | Style to find this: A STYLE table item is also used to record shape file LOAD command requests. In this case the first bit (1) is set in the 70 group flags and only the 3 group (shape file name) is meaningful (all the other groups are output, however).
Grazie mille, I never look at that, may be this is reason that I can not rename this text style. Thanks again. Marco --
