      <title>X-References Lost in Conversion from AutoCAD to Microstation</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;We received a Microstation drawing from a client that we converted to AutoCAD format. The Microstation drawing has several x-references.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;After completing our drafting work in AutoCAD, we converted the file back to Microstation format. In the conversion back to Microstation, the x-references no longer appear. In other words, when we open the drawing back up in Microstation, we have no x-references.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Looking over the 'Export' menu in AutoCAD, I don't see any options that would enable the allowance to include x-references (please see attached).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Is there a way to include x-references in the conversion? Thank you.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>Is it a mapping/pathing problem?&lt;BR /&gt;Are they detached, or removed altogether from the top file?&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I don't think so. Putting the Microstation drawing I started with aside, I selected any old AutoCAD file that had a set of x-reference files.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;When I export said AutoCAD file to DGN format, the x-reference files don't appear in Microstation. I toggled through all the export options too in AutoCAD's 'Export' menu, but the x-reference files are simply not binding to the newly created DGN file. Noting, I'm not too familiar with how x-references are framed in Microstation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I'm scratching my head trying to see why the files are not binding together in the conversion.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm sorry for missing the other questions; please see below.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;1) Is it a mapping/pathing problem?&lt;/STRONG&gt; I don't think so. In AutoCAD the x-references are referenced to the drawing I'm converting as is typically done. Only question I have is, maybe when you export a file there's another methodology&amp;nbsp;involved when going from DWG to DGN.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;2)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Are they detached?&lt;/STRONG&gt; The newly tested CAD files have the x-references all attached.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;3) Are they removed altogether from the top file?&lt;/STRONG&gt; No, they are not removed in AutoCAD, but in Microsation they are not under the top file (if I'm understanding you correctly).&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Thanks again.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>So you might try a Microstation Support forum for issues within that program &lt;A href="https://communities.bentley.com/products/microstation/f/microstation-forum" target="_blank"&gt;https://communities.bentley.com/products/microstation/f/microstation-forum&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;But I will assume if the xref files are loaded/present in the top file, then you either have a layer off issue, the xrefs need to be reloaded (think AutoCAD's unload option in XREF, but the reverse), or they are out of view (you have a floating element too far away from your content).&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thank you for the speedy response.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It's not any off layer issues or anything being out of view. The x-reference files simply do not appear in Microstation after the conversion.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I'll test the Microstation forum as suggested.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
