Hi my friends
I want to edit multiple blocks (color) at once in AutoCAD without open block editor
what can I do
I search and find some LSP in below link but when I APPLOAD to AutoCAD it doesn't work
Can anybody help me ?
Thanks a lot
 
Simply set every layer in the drawing to the color you want. If you draw like I do, then most if not all of the lines will be BYLAYER, and when you redefine the layers the colors in the blocks will update, too.

It's not quite what you asked for, but it might work for you if you only need the color(s) to change and don't care about any other consequences in the drawing.

If you do care about the consequences, then you could prep the other elements in the drawing for the change by moving them to other (or new) layers that won't be affected by the changes you're making to the blocks.

If you have overridden line colors in the blocks, this idea doesn't work perfectly. But maybe just a few, and it's quick to fix them...?
