How to run script on all files within folder to identify non-standard layers?

Is there a way to identify non-standard layers and the files in which they're located?

The folder I'm working with contains thousands of DWGs and I've discovered some layer names which differ from our standard naming conventions.

I need to clean up these anomalies so am seeking a way of identifying/locating them.

Does anyone know of an application that could accomplish this?

 

 

Thanks!

Are you looking for a program that will identify the files with a non-standard layer convention? or also  "clean up" the files?

 

Can you manage to work it on you own If i throw in the link/s and tools to accomplish this?

Yes, I'm looking for a way to identify the files w/ non-standard layering conventions. I'll be going in manually, however, to clean up.

 

Any links/tools suggested would be supremely helpful!

 

Thanks again.
