Hello,

I am working to pull information from autocad block attributes and need help overcoming a problem. Currently, each block's attributes have their own record in the table I am writing them to (they are organized this way straight out of the DWG reader). Looks like this:

Attribute1Attribute2Attribute3<Null>AB<Null>CDE<Null><Null>

What I want to do is combine the records somehow so the table looks like this:

Attribute1Attribute2Attribute3EAB

E

CD

Any ideas how I can do this? I have tried FeatureMerger and InlineQuerier but have had no luck because there is nothing to join on.

Thanks,

Mike

*EDIT*

Initially in the DWG reader I was Grouping Entities by Attribute Schema. I just tried grouping them by Layer and got the same results.

Have you tried the FeatureMerger, not based on attributes but on actual values (1 = 1)?

I added a common attribute to each set with attribute creators and was then able to use FeatureMerger on them to do what I wanted.

Is that what you had in mind?
