Try using "Reference Manager", an AutoCAD utility you should have in your AutoCAD folder.]]> Mon, 18 Mar 2013 17:23:32 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=9057&PID=23058&title=xref-relative-path#23058 <![CDATA[xref relative path : I have created approx 2000 drawings...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=9057&PID=23056&title=xref-relative-path#23056 Author: pete_cull

I have created approx 2000 drawings and set all xrefs with a relative path.

I then copied the entire job onto an external hard drive and this was the copied to a server elsewhere.
The xrefs cannot be found. Is there an easy way, without opening up all drawings and repathing to find the xrefs?
 
I could understand if I had this problem with a full path, but these were all set up using relative.
