&lt;p&gt;If you have multiple 2D&amp;nbsp;files that you want to Export to 3D you can process them all at once.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Steps to Accomplish&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Be sure to perform the operation on a BACKUP COPY of the files!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Before you begin, you must key-in the following at a DOS Command Prompt in order to run msbatch cnvdgn.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;blockquote style="margin-right:0px;" dir="ltr"&gt;
&lt;blockquote style="margin-right:0px;" dir="ltr"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;DOS&amp;gt; cd d:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\AECOsimBuildingDesigner V8i Ss6\AECOsimBuildingDesigner&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Convert 3D to 2D-&lt;br /&gt;MSBATCH can be used to quickly convert 3D files to 2D or vice versa. To do so, use the following syntax:&lt;br /&gt;msbatch cnvdgn inname: outname:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For example, to convert all files in C:\3D\ and place the resulting files in C:\2D\ the command would be as follows:&lt;br /&gt;msbatch cnvdgn inname:c:\3d\*.dgn outname:c:\2d\&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;IMPORTANT - Remember to include the trailing back-slash at the end of the outname. In addition, the file names can&amp;#39;t have any spaces and the output files can not be written to the same folder as the input files.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This is further explained in this Wiki Article - &lt;a href="/communities/other_communities/askinga/w/askinga/1006/using-msbatch-for-command-line-processing"&gt;https://communities.bentley.com/communities/other_communities/askinga/w/askinga/1006/using-msbatch-for-command-line-processing&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Batch process - Export 2D to 3D for multiple files&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Background&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you have multiple 2D&amp;nbsp;files that you want to Export to 3D you can run a Batch Script&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Steps to Accomplish&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Be sure to perform the operation on a BACKUP COPY of the files!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Before you begin, you must key-in the following at a DOS Command Prompt in order to run msbatch cnvdgn.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;blockquote style="margin-right:0px;" dir="ltr"&gt;
&lt;blockquote style="margin-right:0px;" dir="ltr"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;DOS&amp;gt; cd d:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\AECOsimBuildingDesigner V8i Ss6\AECOsimBuildingDesigner&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Convert 3D to 2D-&lt;br /&gt;MSBATCH can be used to quickly convert 3D files to 2D or vice versa. To do so, use the following syntax:&lt;br /&gt;msbatch cnvdgn inname: outname:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For example, to convert all files in C:\3D\ and place the resulting files in C:\2D\ the command would be as follows:&lt;br /&gt;msbatch cnvdgn inname:c:\3d\*.dgn outname:c:\2d\&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;IMPORTANT - Remember to include the trailing back-slash at the end of the outname. In addition, the file names can&amp;#39;t have any spaces and the output files can not be written to the same folder as the input files.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This is further explained in this Wiki Article - &lt;a href="https://communities.bentley.com/communities/other_communities/askinga/w/askinga/1006/using-msbatch-for-command-line-processing"&gt;https://communities.bentley.com/communities/other_communities/askinga/w/askinga/1006/using-msbatch-for-command-line-processing&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;img style="border-left-width:0px;border-right-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;border-top-width:0px;" alt=" " src="http://communities.bentley.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-components-sitefiles/TSG-Logo.png" width="189" height="60" /&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
