Layout Outline in Model Space

Hi there, 

 

On a recent project we've created plan and profile sheets for about 50 miles of pipeline. After review my boss now wants an overview (key), inset in the corner. The overview is going to show the overall site and the outline for each plan sheet similar to the photo below. However, we didn't plan this before building out plan and profile sheets. Does anyone have a .lisp or shortcut to get the outline of each plan view into model space? I know I can outline them and change space, but over 100 sheets, this will take me forever.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide!

Here is a link to a lisp that will do multiple frames in a drawing:

In that same thread is a smaller lisp that works on one at a time.
