    I want to delete the name of the xref and the $#$ and leave just the name of
    the layer.
    Does anyone has a lisp to do this?

    TIA

    Well to start with, don't bnd XREFs, insert 'em. There was a lisp posted here a long time ago, a search may turn it up.

    Tia,

    Use the RENAME function.

    Set up either as a entget or keyboard entry
    for the old, and keyboard entry for the new layer...

    If you use:

    (command "-xref" "bind" xrefname)

    the xref layer-names will keep their old xref-name-prefix, but if you first
    set the BINDTYPE to 1 then you only get plain layer-names.

    (setvar "bindtype" 1)
    (command "-xref" "bind" xrefname)
