    I need to convert a relative path in an xref to a full path so I can use
    ObjectDBX to open it. I'm looking to edit an attribute in a block that
    resides in the xref so I don't think I can do that using .XrefDatabase.
    But I also can't seem to open the dwg by feeding a relative path to the
    open method of AxDbDocument.

    You'll probably need to find the file first using acad's search path.
    Should not be hard to implement a findfile function in VBA. Look in the NG.
