Commandline: xref
Manage externally referenced drawings. These are drawings that are visible in the current Model space but maintained in separate files. They are linked here read only. This allows base drawings to be managed separately yet display in the current drawing. Because they are linked they are not editable.
You can bind a previously Externally Referenced drawing to the current document if you desire that it be editable in the current view. You can control the visibility of XREF layers from the Layers dialog.
