Apologies if this has been answered on a previous thread, but I kept following the solution but it's not working for me.
The script is:
 
-xref
D
*
 
But unfortunately it doesn't work. Here is the actual command sequence that I have:
 
Command: -xref

Enter an option [?/Bind/Detach/Path/Unload/Reload/Overlay/Attach] <Attach>: d

Enter xref name(s) to detach: *
No matching xref names found.
 
I am using AutoCAD 2013 LT.
 
EDIT: These xrefs found in the drawing are unreferenced.
 
Thanks in advance.
