Hi Are there any news on support for SQL Server 2008 Spatial? As far as I can see Bentley Map (or MicroStation) doesn't support SQL Spatial at all?
As far as I can see (and search) the latest reply to the question was november 11. 2007 by Keith Raymond, Bentley: "Bentley is extremely interested in SQL Server 2008 with spatial support and it is in our plans for sure." ...isn't there any news from Bentley.

This would require a custom unload/load tool.
As an alternative you could consider migrating both geometry and attributes to Oracle Spatial using Bentley Map's DGN2SDO tool.

Hello again
Any Bentley news on this issue?? It's still a strong desire to MicroStation (Bentley Map) to support SQL Spatial ...and why only Oracle Spatial??
Amomg other reasons why this is "hot": In Denmark there is an increasing use of ECDM (Electronic Case and Data Management Systems -ESDH in Danish) - especially in the public administration wich also include infrastructure (road, sewer ...etc.). Very often the ECDM data are stored in a SQL Spatial... and therefore the management wants as much of the data to be stored in the database in stead of file servers.
Regards Anders
Anders;
From what I know, support for SQL Server is on the list and will be in a future release.

Any Spatial news yet?
or release dates / works in progress?
Anything that we can start to set migration dates for at all?
