Hi All,

Is het possible to see if a ArchiCAD drawing has external references?

Have a look at the Hotlink Manager to see if there are any hotlinks and the Drawing Manager to see if there are any external drawings have been placed.

Nothing under the Hotlink Manager and the Drawing Manager.

Then I would say you don't have any external references.
If you do and Archicad can't find them you should get a warning message as you open the file.
