A way to list where a drawing is Xref'd

[jeff.garr]

Is there a way to find a listing of where a drawing is x-ref'd to- other than in each drawing it is attached to??
I think I have asked this question awile ago, but can't find anything in 'search' for it.....

I think I have asked this question awile ago, but can't find anything in 'search' for it.....I am 99% positive that this isn't possible (I know it's not possible with acad, but, it might be with some really smart person doing some programming, I don't know)

It is possible .... Via the design centre.

There is a search facility and you can look for which files a certain xref is atached.

Here is the dialogue that comes up ...
Type in the xref name and selcet folders to search.
It will then list all drawings that file is Xref'd into ...
