Is there anyway to have a drawing linked from Inventor update in AutoCAD or viseversa? Maby like an xRef?

Thanks

Use Design Center in AutoCAD and browse for the Inventor DWG, not IDWs and place views from your Inventor DWG sheets. If an update is required you can simply reload the block through Design Center at will. It will not be automatic like an X-Ref. Overall this is quite awesome to put a machine view into a plant layout for space planning and update it when new revisions come down.
 
I will give this a shot. Thank you very much!!
