I don't seem to be able to duplicate this problem--have you got a specific example that you can send to me?

The only way that I can think of that you could "lose" block labels on a move operation is if you happen to perform a move such that the move would place the block label either directly on top of a point or a line. In this case, the program is intentionally written so that the point or line segment "wins" and the block label vanishes.

Dave.
