Can't Open DGN file.

[Anonymous]

Hey all, i was reading that it is possible to import DGN files into Autocad but I cant... Does that have anything to do with the student version im using? Autocad 2018 for students

If your DGN file is good then _DGNIMPORT should work ok.  You can type that command or click the big red "A" application icon and DGN will be listed on the Import menu.

If you need the DGN file checked feel free to upload.

It is not a license problem.

Appears a message?

I think the dgn content/format is not compatible.

Read your help about limitations.

Not all DGN file formats are importable; open HELP in AutoCAD2018 and read about the limitations.
