2002 OpenStaad

2002 OpenStaad

2002 OpenStaad

(OP)
I have just received the latest version of STAADPro 2002. They have a new open architecture called OpenStaad which allows people to integrate their software with Excel, AuotCAD, etc. My question is, I am trying to integrate my steel design results (basically final section profiles) with Microstation V8 (from Bentley) for drawings. I have my macro written out (actually somebody wrote it for me!) but I cannot seem to launch it within Microstation. How do I do this? In AutoCAD, it is under Tools | Macros. This is a real nice feature Staad has added.

RE: 2002 OpenStaad

It is under Tools->Macro in V8 as well! It works the same as in AutoCAD 2000. Do you know if you can write macros in STAAD.Pro itself? That would be ideal.
