    Hi GeoGra and RiBeneke, I read the other thread about incompatability problems running AutoCAD 2000 on Windows XP Home, and it seems that some have problems, and some are doing just fine. I wonder why this is so? Has Autodesk manage to resolve the incompatability issues yet? As for me, I am...

    How to: (i) import Excel files (ii) change Fence display

    Thanks, RAWeber. You hit the nail right on the head! I had imported the Excel file, as Rich has explained in a previous response, but once the Excel file was in my Microstation file, I couldn't edit it. This has me worried, obviously, because there are always changes to be made to files. But...

    How to: (i) import Excel files (ii) change Fence display

    Rich, I have tried to "Copy & Linked" method you described, and found that I am able to "import" my Excel file into Microstation. As my file was large, I had to do this in "pieces" as you described. I have a few questions, though, and I hope you can help clarify...
