I am needing some assistance on writing a script that will grab a block from a location on a network and insert it into a batch of drawings at a designated location. The block I am dealing with right now is a void stamp/block that I need to be placed into all drawings in a set. The way I have been doing it so far is to insert it into the first and copy at base point 0,0 and then paste it at those coordinates throughout the set manually. I then have a script that opens all of the drawings and zooms into the stamp so that any time someone would happen to open the drawings the first thing they would see is that it has been voided out.

I would appreciate any assistance with the script.

Below is a script I use to insert a simple block uniformly to a set of drawings. Hopefully this helps.

The easiest way for me to create a new type of script is to first do it manually on the command line and then use Hurricane's capture feature. Once I have a base script for something I usually just doctor it up as needed for other uses.
