Boundary/Region Command - Without Selecting internal points

[broncos15]

I am trying to figure out a way to create closed polylines from a group of overlapping objects, without having to pick internal points. Similar to the region command and then intersect, the user would just need to select all the closed polylines that they want, the code would then create new objects and delete all of the original selected objects. Rather than delete all except the intersected objects, like the intersect command, it would just create all new objects. For example, if two rectangles intersected, the LISP would create three objects (one for the intersecting region, one each for the non intersecting region, just like the bpoly command if I pick inside the three different shapes), and delete the original two rectangles. Is this easily done using autocad commands, or do I need to figure out how to do it all using LISP?

Lee, that is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!
