Remove Font formatting in MText

[tedg]

Does anyone out there know a global way to change a font back to it's original style withing mtext?

For example, if you have a block of mtext and someone has changed the font within the mtext dialog, is there some variable or properties to change it back?

Occasionally I run into a situation where I bring in some notes or something and the text is supposed to match what I have in my drawing, the text style is correct but the font has been changed within the mtext by an evil autocad user!!

Anyone?

Thanks,
Ted

Ted, Please note I have *moved* this thread from the New Forum Users Forum to this one as I believe it would be better served here.

Search the forums for stripmtext, it sounds like it is exactly what you need.

It was exactly what I needed!
FYI: It works in AutoCAD 2005 too! (adt 2006)

Worked great, has a nice little dialog box with it.

FWIW, the evil Autocad user seems to have been exorcised. This problem seems to have finally been fixed in 2006.
