Binding xref's

I'm using 2009LT.  I'm archiving old jobs, and am binding all the xref's.  Is there a keyboard command that will allow me to do this without having to use my mouse? (dislocated index finger on my right hand)

Look around and see if that can be called from a Macro or Script.

Someone may have created one and posted it somewhere. Google too.

-XREF command will give you command line prompts. You can also try this untested macro.

 

^C^C-XREF;B;*;

If you just enter the commands as you wrote it, it doesn't work.  However, it you enter -xref then b then *, it will work.  thanks, I can type that one handed.

The tip posted was a menu macro, as others suggested, to creat a button for this action: it was not a type-at-the-commandline instruction.

OP you are correct that the string will not work from the Command Line.

If you place this Macro on a button in the CUI then you will have a one click option for the index finger.

Ok, wasn't thinking on the lines of a macro, thanks.
