Scale globally by block insertion points?

    I have a drawing with about 1000 blocks (actually three different blocks all
    with attributes) and I need to globally scale them all up so that I can read
    the text (which is REAL small)).

    Does AutoCAD have such a routine? I guess between my back spasms and
    flu-like symptoms, I'm having a bad Thursday and cna't think today.....

    Thanks,

    Rick

    Select all objects, issue the properties command. This should bring up the
    properties dialog box. In the upper leftcorner of the dialog box you can
    select an object type. Change this to block reference. Scroll down to the
    scale values and set them to whatever you like.

    I did that, but the text has not changed. The propoerties box says that I
    scaled them 8.333 times, but they are still at the original text height.
