    Question Block references itself

    I am trying to insert a block I created into ACAD 2004 and keep getting the error: "Block A-SYMB-RMNR references itself *Invalid*". Any thoughts as to what I may have done? I created the attributes for the block with the "Att" command and it also includes a rectangle constructed of one polyline. The block itself is to specify room numbers on a building layout. I did include an attachment of the block I created if anyone wants to view. Any help would be appreciated.....

    Open the original drawing and explode the block, then run a purge. Now you'll be able to insert it into other drawings.
