RE: External References
If V5, what release ? and lastly what types of elements are you wanting to create from whatever external references ?
If it is V5 and R9 or higher then you can create Points, Lines, Curves and Loft Surfaces from coordinate data that is in an Excel file.
Look in the Help Documentation for Creating Elements from an External File.

In the online doc you can find also some exemple about script for your problem... Search the online doc.

RE: External References
I have found a work around which consists of placing the items I want to create external references of in a selection, copying the selection then pasting into the correct open_body.
if there are any other ways to do this I would be very greatfull to hear about them
thanks greg
