Hi Robert! If the design file is version 7, it can easily be imported with the built in Universal Translator which does a pretty good job. On the other hand, if it's V8, UT will balk and you will need help converting it to V7 which can be done with MicroStation. I see no reason to use Autocad as an intermediary format, you will risk losing all styles in the process.
I do not think you need to worry about the *.rsc and *.tbl files. In MicroStation, an rsc is some kind of resource file whick can be used for different purposes. The same goes for the tbl which can be color tables or something. Neither is linked to the dgn files or needed to read the contents.

I also have some *.rsc a *.tbl files in a folder named common files wich I don't know they origin and what to use them for. My first questions is if anybody knows these latter extensions and what is their use for. The second is, how can I export these extensions to Mapinfo? Somebody told me that there's the posibility to export from Microstation to AutocadMap and then to Mapinfo, but my problem is that I don't have Microstation neither Autocad. Well, thanks in advance for your answers, Robert Juan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
