    Default Hi, help pls, how to extract. with Lisp, the NAME of the file of an XREF, but that is inside another XREF

    Hi, help pls, how to extract. with Lisp, the NAME of the file of an XREF, but that is inside another XREF
    For example, the main XREF, the one displayed on the screen, is called ONE, but within the ONE file, there was already an XREF, within ONE, called TWO.
    I need to extract that Xref name (TWO) to a variable.
    Please.
    And thanks a lot for the help guys !!!!

    try this:
    Code:
    ; GetXrfLst function given name of xref returns list of nested xref names if any
    ; Examples:
    ; (load "GetXrfLst")
    ; (setq lst (GetXrfLst "Xref Name")) ; where "Xref Name" is name of top level Xref in current dwg
    ; Returns:
    ; nil ; if no nested xrefs found
    ; ("Elevator Bank 4" "Stair U") ; sorted list of nested xref names
    ; To get xref path of first element:
    ; (cdr (assoc 2 (tblsearch "BLOCK" (nth 0 lst))))
    ;
    (defun GetXrfLst (xrf / _nestedxrefs lst)
      (vl-load-com)
    ; _nestedxrefs function given tblobjname of block xref name
    ; Returns list of nested xrefs if any

     (defun _nestedxrefs ( blk / enx rtn xrn )
       (while (setq blk (entnext blk))
           (if (and (setq enx (entget blk))
                    (= "INSERT" (cdr (assoc 0 enx)))
                    (setq xrn (cdr (assoc 2 enx)))
                    (= 4 (logand 4 (cdr (assoc 70 (tblsearch "BLOCK" xrn)))))
                    (not (member xrn rtn))
               )
               (setq rtn (cons xrn rtn))
           )
       )
       rtn
     )
     (if
      (and
       (tblsearch "BLOCK" xrf) ; if xref name exists in block table
       (setq lst (_nestedxrefs (tblobjname "BLOCK" xrf))) ; get nested xrefs
      )
      (vl-sort lst '<) ; return sorted list in ascending order
     )
    ) ; defun
