Batch Bind DWG drawing sets in AutoCAD

Hi

 

I can batch etransmit dwg drawing sets via sheet set manager. How do I batch bind drawings? I am using AutoCAD 2016 and AutoCAD Civil 3D. Or if this cannot be done are there any free scripts or pluggins that can do this.

 

Thanks

I made a macro that will bind all xrefs in the current drawing. Bind type 1 changes variable to Insert (as a block reference). Look up Bind vs Insert bind types.

 

^C^Cbindtype;1;-xref;bind;*;

 

Also refer to the attached pic. There is a setting in the Etrans menu that will Bind your drawings automatically. This setting should save when you do an Etrans thru SSM
