To Make an Annotation Style Annotative

Note: After updating an existing annotation style to being annotative or non-annotative, existing objects that reference those styles are not automatically updated to reflect the annotative property of the style or definition. Use the ANNOUPDATE command to update the existing objects to the current annotative properties of the style.
