Getting all XRef's In VBA

[Anonymous]

I am trying to find out all the XRefs for a document in the following way,

--
Sub getxrefs()
Dim myXRefs As AcadExternalReference
For Each myXRefs In ActiveDocument.ModelSpace
MsgBox myXRefs.Path
Next
UserForm1.Show
End Sub
--

This is fine for ModelSpace XRefs but I would to get all the XRefs for
PaperSpace as well. I thought that it would be a case of changing the third
line to 'For Each myXRefs In ActiveDocument.PaperSpace' but this does not
work.

Any help with PaperSpace XRef's would be most gratefully received.

Cycle through the Blocks colelction checking the IsXref
property. When it returns True, create a filtered selection
set using the name of that block. Doing so will yield every
xref insert regardless of which space block it is contained
in:

Dim blkDef As AcadBlock, xref As AcadExternalReference
Dim fType(1) As Integer, fData(1)
Dim ss As AcadSelectionSet

Set ss = ThisDrawing.Selectionsets.Add("ss")

fType(0) = 0 : fData(0) = "INSERT"
fType(1) = 2

For Each blkDef In ThisDrawing.Blocks
If blkDef.IsXref Then
fData(1) = blkDef.Name
ss.Select , , fType, fData
For Each xref In ss

Next
End If
Next

An xref is another type of insert. Once you've collected the inserts
using a filtered selection set, you can cast the AcadBlockReference to
an AcadExternalReference:

Dim xref As AcadExternalReference

For Each xref In ss
xref.Layer =
Next
