    Dont know which version of AutoCAD your using but in CAD2K you can enter -LAYER command and then enter ? at the command line.It will then ask Enter layer name(s) to list <*>: .Just hit the enter buton.It will then list all the layers within the current drawing by Layer name, State, Color Linetype & Lineweight.You can then copy this text into whatever editor you want or print it.If youre talking about this all being done automaticaly then I reckon you'd be looking at AutoLISP or maybe even a script.

    A lisp routine is posted here in the Forum
    http://cadtutor.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=159
    Scroll down on that page to the routine "layer utility".
    It's nice to be nice, but sometimes is nicer to be evil!.
    Tip: Please do not PM or email me with CAD questions - use the forums, you'll get an answer sooner.
