layers

(OP)
Is there a way to transfer which layers that are on/off, froze, etc. in one dwg with many xrefs into another dwg?  i.e. use the same on/off, frozen layers to be the same in each dwg.

RE: layers

I believe if you have the express tools, a command named LMAN will allow you to save and retrieve layer states.
