Yes aqeel222 xref are made for this.
You make a file to be used in different files and each time you update it, it will be updated in each file were it is xrefed.
Xref are great but you have to be careful not to rename tem, change the name of the directories, move them, etc...

Yes, create and run a script that will batch process a folder full of drawings.  Each drawing will be opened, revised and saved as the script works its way through the folder until the last drawing has been revised.
