Lately users of Autodesk Inventor 11, 10 or 9 have lost the creation of text in the idw files. This was a result of a hotfix brought by Microsoft. They are not to blame but it did create problem in Autodesk Inventor. To fix the issue we had to uninstall the Microsoft Hotfix KB918118 and then everything was back to normal. Now this solution can be put away, Autodesk has come up with a there own hotfix. Hmmmm hotfix for a hotfix, got to love the software business.
Here are the links to the Autodesk Hotfix solution.
Hotfix - Create or Edit Text in IDW Files After Applying Microsoft Hotfix KB918118
Please read the read me file before applying it.
Issue fixed,

I have the same type of issue with Inventor 8 SP1 - I know it is old, but that is what we are using... is there a fix for it too?
On occasion, one of our techs has been able to replace the riched20.dll and got it working, but not this time.
I don't even see the KB918118 in the add/remove programs.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
