Renaming Registered Design Files in Bentley Building Electrical Systems
Since BBES uses an outside database to store information about the symbols that you place in a BBES design file, you can not simply rename the dgn files and maintain the data within the database. However, there is a tool within BBES that will allow you to rename both the dgn files and the database files at the same time.
The Registered Design Files tool can be found in the XM and v8i versions of BBES in the Electrical menu. (Electrical -> Setup -> Registered Design Files)
When the dialog opens, select Floor Plans in the list on the left hand side of the dialog.
You will see a list of the registered design files in your current project in the file list on the right hand side of the dialog.
To rename a file:
Tip: (You can rename any file except the current one. You may want to do this process from a temporary file.)
