Example

Remarks

Only the entity that matches the specified name in this dictionary is removed. If the entity exists in the drawing, then the entity is not removed from the drawing.

NOTE: You can also remove dictionaries or XRecords in a dictionary using IDictionary::Erased or IXRecord::Erased, respectively. However, IXDictionary::Erased and IXRecord::Erased require you to call IDictionary::SetEntry to restore any dictionaries or XRecords erased using IDictionary::Erased or IXRecord::Erased. If you removed any dictionaries or XRecords using IDictionary::RemoveEntry, then you do not have to call IDictionary::SetEntry to restore the removed dictionaries or XRecords.
