Hi,
We get DXF files over that have been created in AutoCAD and in theory we should be able to open them in Microstation but 5% of the files that are sent over we can't seem to open in either.
I have tried to open in AutoCAD, Fusion 360 and Microstation but to no avail. I have also tried to add the file as a reference but that won't work either.
The error that comes up in Mircostation is 'Unable to open design file. Please contact your local site administrator or technical support provider for further assistance.' and it just crashes AutoCAD.
We can, however, open in it in QGIS, but can't extract the co-ordinates.
I have gone through every forum I can find but can't get any of the solutions to work.
Versions are:
Microstation - Microstation V8i (Select Series 3) [8.11.9.357]
AutoCAD - AutoCAD 2018
Many thanks!
