Just wondering is there Extraction operation available in AECOsim Connect Edtion like previous version. If yes could you show me where it is.
Hi all
It's great that DEM has been depreciated / phased out, but how is it possible to upgrade an extraction to a DV in CONNECT? We have a number of files which contain drawing definitions that need to be recreated as DVs, but it seems there is no longer a way to this. How can we tell where previous extractions were created, which are missing from the new DV definitions and which still need to be recreated? Do we need a parallel copy of V8i installed to achieve this?
Hi Marc et al

There is an option to convert a DEM defition to DV in V8i in the DEM Manager.
CE should be able to read the DV's.
Might be worth mentioning at the next SIG which is now going through the DV workflow.
Hi Nigel,
As the mechanics of DEM no longer exist in CONNECT you would need to do this in V8i using the tool in the DEM dialog mentioned by Dominic.
