hi all,

i have 2 drawings - ground floor and first floor. when i do an ID on a
point on the grid i get the same readings for both drawings however,
when i xref one into the other or both into a new drawing they come in
in different locations. i've checked they're both using world UCS and
the same units. any ideas? i thought with autocad 0,0 was always 0,0?

cheers
rob

UCS? INSBASE?
