    I need to take something that I've created in model space and transfer it
    into a block. Is that possible using activex?

    Thanks,

    Devin

    Yes. Something like this.....
    Create the entity, assign it to a variable as a vla-object:
    (setq ent (vlax-ename->vla-object (car (entsel))));or something similar
    Get the block from the blocks collection:
    (setq block (vla-item (vla-get-blocks
    (vla-get-activedocument(vlax-get-acad-object))) "YOURBLOCKNAME"))
    Add the item to the block:
    (vlax-invoke (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object)) "copyobjects"
    (list ent) block pairs)
    Delete the original:
    (vla-delete ent)

    Thanks Jeff, I probably never would have found that had you not pointed it
    out!
