XREF LAYERS

    Other than XLIST, are there any other lisp routines that will list the layer
    of a entity which is selected within a XREF (without opening the XREF or
    using reference edit)? I can not use reference edit because we are using
    Autoplant (a database file is associated with the model and is not opened
    unless the model is opened directly in its own session).

    XLIST is giving me layer 0 for entities I know are not layer 0. Within that
    same xref, there are entities that are listed correctly.

    (defun c:getlayer ( / ent layername)
    (setq ent (nentsel "\nSelect Object on XREF: "))
    (if (> (length (nth 3 ent)) 1)
    (setq layername (cdr (assoc 8 (entget (car (nth 3 ent))))))
    (setq layername (cdr (assoc 8 (entget (car ent)))))
    )
    (print layername)
    (princ)
    )
