Dgn > dwg

[SMP]

THE SHORT VERSION FOR FOLKS WITH ADD:

 

Is there a way to convert a .dgn to a .dwg without microstation?

 

-I have read that you can xref a dgn in a dwg but this did not work. civil3D simply does not recognize the dgn extension in any way shape or form ....that i have found.

 

 

THE LONG VERSION AS TO WHY:

I have both a dgn and a dwg of the same thing, only difference being the dgn has colored layer linework and lineweights etc. for entites on the same layer. The .dwg is just thousands of white lines on various layers.

 

to make it easier id like ot be able to have the colors to at least quick select stuff to move to their own layers seperately. rather then have multiple entites on the same layer that are in no way related to each other.

 

 

 

Any help here would be very apprciated.

DGNIMPORT command, I haven't actually done that so just a guess. I found this in 2012, I assume it is in 2011.
