    Problem

     How can existing elements in a dgn file be upgraded to the current DataGroup System properties?

    Solution

    Utilities menu > Building Designer Utilities > DataGroup Upgrade Utility

    Please note that if properties exist on existing elements that are no longer defined in the schema, running this utility permanently deletes those properties and their corresponding values from the elements. If you wish to keep those properties, you must map them to another remaining property with the DataGroup Transformation Utility, before running the DataGroup Upgrade Utility.

    Also available via key-in:

    Key in: mdl load Bentley.Building.Datagroup.Upgrade.dll
    Key in: dg upgrade
