Can anyone give some guidance on how to replace a Titleblock that has attributes? To be clear I would like the block to be redefined.
This is what I have currently but it does not redefine the titleblock but just overlays a second block on top of the original block.
;;INSERT A BLOCK AT 0,0 ;; EDIT "yourblockname" TO SUIT ;; In this example, a block named "PRELIMINARY" is inserted at 0,0 ;;block is located in a support directory in this instance _INSERT "480th - SCMS Logo ANSI D Border" 0,0
Command: AutoCAD menu utilities loaded. Command: _INSERT Enter block name or : "480th - SCMS Logo ANSI D Border" Duplicate definition of block Logo - NAWC IC2 ignored. Duplicate definition of block Progress Stamp ignored.
Units: Inches Conversion: 1.0000 Specify insertion point or [Basepoint/Scale/X/Y/Z/Rotate/Explode/REpeat]: 0,0
Enter X scale factor, specify opposite corner, or [Corner/XYZ] <1>: Enter Y scale factor <use X scale factor>:
Specify rotation angle <0>:
Enter attribute values CONTRACT NUMBER <####>: PROJECT DRAWING NUMBER <PROJECT NUMBER: ####>: PROJECT TITLE - default value: ####
PROJECT TITLE <accept default>: SHEET TITLE L1 <####>: SHEET TITLE L2 <####>: SHEET TITLE L3 <####>: DWG TITLE <####>: PROJECT MANAGER <####>: PROJECT ENGINEER <####>: DRAFTER <####>: REVIEWED BY: <####>: DRAWING PACKAGE REVISION <####>: SECURITY CLASSIFICATION: <####>: ENTER EXPORT STATEMENT - default value: ####

Try using -insert then after all of the prompts have been answered then add erase and then last. That will get rid of the block. There are multiple ways to do things this is just one example.
make sue you use the quotes as shown below in the "block name = path-block name"
-INSERT "Your Block name=\\full path to where the block lives\Your block name again" 0,0,0 1 1 0 Erase Last
