HI all
We receive a bunch of Microstation files from various authors/vendor/clients.
Since those all are create from various template, the attributes attach to those files are not homogeneous.
In order to help make those files more similar, I need to add a set of attributes to incoming files.
This way If files are being exchange ( export to a none manage environment), we will still have a common ground to sort file when import back to our system after review or rework.
I hope that having the same set of attributes, will help us on the medium/long term.
How can I do that in batch? Is their a tool that will allow me to fill the name of those attributes and push those attributes in a batch of .dgn file? Can this be done inside Projectwise?
Can that tool be redistribute to our vendor/client/Author so they can update .dgn file before sending us the data?

One possibility is MicroStation tags. Tags can be defined to be invisible, so third-parties would not see them without some effort. However, tags are dependent on a host element (e.g. a title block cell). Tags are handled well by MicroStation VBA and have built-in reporting tools.
Another possibility is user data, which are handled quite well by MicroStation VBA. You can create an invisible application element to store a DataBlock of custom data.
