Anyone here have a tried and true process for exporting Autocad MEP to DGN format. Or is there another format that works better?

We use Bentley MEP and always have trouble with all the different Autocad file formats out there. Why can't these darn programs work together... :glare:

Anyway, I appreciate any ideas you guys have to offer- Thanks-

At my place we use BentleyXM, MEP 08 & Revit. It has been my experience that there is no great way to get data back and forth. Have you tried IFC? That is probably your best chance of keeping at least some of the object properties. If you just need the model data then use the 'export to AutoCAD' function of MEP.
