    in 04 you used to be able to select more than 1 xref to say bind all the xrefs... now in 07 i have to select each one...? isn't that a step back?

    any clue?

    Chad,

    You should be able to select multiple drawings in the xref dialogue by using the shift or control keys. Once you have multiple drawings selected, right click, and the bind option will be there, allowing you to bind multiple drawings.

    Are you in List view or Tree view? Tree view only allows you to select
    one xref at a time, List view allows multiple. Check the buttons at the
    top of the xref manager box.

    Good call C.Groth!

    Granted that LDT won't be going through any application revisions any more,
    but the application it rides along with as a "vertical"?

    That's quite a different story. :-o

    You always need to review what's been changed in the "vanilla" application -
    AutoCAD obviously.

    Thanks again.
