Extract data from xref object

[r.lash]

Is there a way to extract the data of an object in an xref drawing? Example extract the description of an AECC point that is in the xrefed drawing, then write the description to the existing drawing.

Thanks

This will get you the entity data:

(entget (car (nentsel)))

To save that so you can extract pieces of information from it:

(setq edata (entget (car (nentsel))))

Do you need help in how to extract pieces of information from that list, with things like (cdr
(assoc XX edata)) and the like?
