Title: Software to batch convert DGN files to DWG
Post by: alanjt on January 05, 2018, 09:14:15 AM

Does anyone have any recommendations on a program that will convert an entire directory of DGN files (microstation project) to DWG?
I know Civil 3D has the DGNIMPORT and DGNINSERT commands, but I don't want to have to do that for 30 files.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Probably not affordable but the fastest batch convert I've seen is using Microstation. If you want, send the files to me and I can convert them for you.

Alternatively, you could script it using vl-directory-files and -DGNIMPORT :)

Just update this topic. There was one solution in Autodesk forum. https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/visual-lisp-autolisp-and-general/dgn-to-dwg-lisp-program-not-working/td-p/9188123 (https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/visual-lisp-autolisp-and-general/dgn-to-dwg-lisp-program-not-working/td-p/9188123)
