Batch Process

Can anyone explain how to use batch process to update cell's in multiple files?

  • Hi Melissa,

    Having tested this I can confirm that double quotes are needed to parse paths with spaces and that testing with a folder name that included a '+' failed, once the '+' was removed and the command adjusted to match, it processed as expected. Here is an example:

    msbatch repcell.ma "D:\_USERFILES\test folder\RepCellTest.dgn" "C:\ProgramData\Bentley\MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries)\WorkSpace\Projects\Examples\General\cell\Facade.cel" y Facade_00 Facade_02

    To get around the current folder names you could just copy the relevant files out of their working folders to a temporary location, replace the cells then move them back once checked and complete. Obviously ensure that no one else makes changes to the files while you are doing this.

    The documentation that we provide on this needs to be updated to state that double quotes are required.

    Regards
