Compare Layer structure between two drawings - AutoCad LT 2021

[Anonymous]

Hey there,

I´m new to AutoCad LT and I need to find a needle in the haystack: I have two drawings and surprisingly there are five more layer in the second drawing than in the first one out of 809 layers. I used the new "Compare" command, but I think this does not fit for this issue. Do you know a command/ function that could help me?

Kind regards,

Lukas

I once got similar issue, then I just selected all the layers in each drawing and copied to an excel sheet and used "vlookup" function within the excel to compare the names, it took me 2 to 3 mins to identify wrong layers, you can try the same, hope this will help you before someone come up with a better solution.
