Command entry:
AEXREF
Cross-referencing is based upon collecting and annotating groups of components that carry the same TAG text string value (such as "101CR"). Components do not have to be of the same family to be cross-referenced; they must have the same TAG1/TAG2/TAG_*/TAG attribute values.
Cross-reference data is annotated on to attributes "XREFNO" and "XREFNC" for N.O and N.C. references respectively. Alternately, if attribute XREF is present, both N.O. and N.C. references are combined into a single cross-reference text string.
