--UPPER Xref
--LOWER Xref
The program writes an entry in the log file for each xref-dependent named
object temporarily added to the current drawing and for any errors that occur.
Most error messages are written both to the screen and to the log file.
Example:A Sample Log File That Shows the Results of Attaching an
Xref
The following example shows a partial listing of the log file entries generated
when the external reference STAIR is attached to the working drawing test.dwg.
The log file lists the definition (symbol) table affected and the name of the
definition added, along with a status message.
