XREF's from VB6 with a DLL or OCX?

[Anonymous]

I need a simple "Does this DWG Contain XREF's?" Yes or No. I don't
necessarily want to install AutoCAD just to find this out.

Anyone know where to get a DLL or OCX that can detect if a DWG contains
XREF's? Or, how I'd easily go about detecting this myself? I could goto
OpenDWG I suppose, but if a corner can be cut...

regards

Other than ObjectDBX, I don't know of anoy other method to obtain that
information. OpenDWG's ODX.DLL is free (but big). Using ODX, it's a
snap to locate xrefs in a drawing.

Sorry to sound dense, but I am very new to AutoCAD. What is ObjectDBX? Is
it part of AutoCAD?

Thanks, I'll go take a look on OpenDWG for ODX.

ObjectDBX is a technology that will let you access a drawing without
having to first load it into the AutoCAD editor. It comes with AutoCAD
but it also requires AutoCAD. I've heard that there is a standalone
version of it but I have yet to meet any member of these groups that
has actually licensed it.
