Sorry maybe I should have been more specific. My daystamp does update in my Frame dwg but it does not when I X-REF the frame dwg into a new dwg.

What do you want it to update to?
The date and time that you XREF it into
the PARENT drawing? I'm reasonably sure
that it isn't going to do that, as technically you
did not modify the file.
Or is it that the day stamp of the PARENT drawing doesnt update?

Hi

If you have Express Tools you might want to take a look at using RText for Plot Stamps (refer to the Express Tools Online Help File for examples).

PullDownMenu: Express -> Text -> Remote Text
