Hello Ralston21, do you want to "re-insert" an XREF into a file where it is and make it like it was a normal block?
You can't insert a file ( to become a Block inside your file ) if it's already an XREF inside it but you can launch a command that will "transform" your XREF into a normal block.
You do this generally to "store" a file with XREF at the end of a project so that you "secure" the file for example.
Tell us more.

Hello again Ralston21, you will have to use the command -XREF and use one of the options under it.
I'm sorry but my AutoCAD release is in French so I just can't help you more but it should be the second after :
-1- ? ( list of the XREF )
-2- Bind
-3- Detach
-4- path
-5- download
-6- Reload
-7- Overlay
-8- Attach
-9- Scale , etc...
 
In any case, launch the help ( F1 ) and type : XREF , -XREF , _XREF and print everything for you to read away from the AutoCAD environement.

Hello again Ralston, first I'm not a "sir" but I'm OK with this.
For Ctrl-P I think that it's the quicker that you can get ( in any software ) and P is already used for the command PAN in AutoCAD.
Have a nice day and yes you can ask all the question that you want, you are welcomed.
For the rest I would recommend to download the PDF file of the AutoCAD 2012 commands that should have a name like :
AutoCAD_2012_command-ref_enu_v2[1].pdf ( search it on the internet ).
previously this files were in you disk (C), I don't know now.
