Using A2K5, obviously....
To my knowledge, a field expression in mapped to an Object Id.
FE: %<AcObjProp Object(2117824080).TextString f "%bl2">%
(in this case) Object ID of Text: 2118934440
The crazy thing is, is that the FIELD still updates properly, even though
the Object Id in the FIELD expression is different. This does not make sense
why it still works. This could be a HUGE problem, or even a bug.
Why does it update properly, and how does it know what source Object Id,
since the source has a different ID that the Field expression.
I have wrote some VBA code to find an object based upon the Id in the field,
but Acad crashed every
time now with a FATAL Error, when I discovered this anomaly in the drawing
provided.
Otherwise the code works fine.
Any explanations?
Tanks,
Dan
