Question about using blocks in Measure command

    I need to measure a line and would like to use an attributed block. So far, when I try it, the block inserts, but the attribute doesn't. Is it possible? Or will I just have to manually add the text for each block?
    Any help willl be appreciated.

    Here's a trick....

    Insert the block (with the attributes) then make it a new block
    (nesting) use that new block in your DIVIDE or MEASURE and then explode
    them and you can change the attribute values.
