I would like to ask if your installation package has a node that can extract the actual path of Xref, because one of my changes is to write the actual path of Xref that already exists in the drawing into the EXCEL table. I don’t know if your installation package node has this function. [Screenshot…

It’d been too long since I’d last crashed Civil3D, so I’ll weigh in with a possible solution… Can someone with a real project to test with give this a shot? I don’t know what sort of issues this could have with data references, images, pdfs, or other xref types. It is working for me (without regex) …
