Referencing shape file into a dgn using MicroStation V8i SS4

Hello,

Using MicroStation V8i SS4 08.11.09.829

Our Environmental Dept. would like to use their handheld gps’s to shoot Wetland data.  One problem with that is the only output the gps units can produce are shape files and txt files of the points taken.  At this point Environmental would prefer a shape file output, which could then be referenced into a dgn using MicroStation.  I thought the following workflow should have worked but they are not coming together when I experimented.

1. If the gps shape file is on say “ABC“ coordinate system (which can be determined by opening the prj file)
2. Create a fresh dgn and set the coordinate system to “ABC”
3. Reference in the shape file while set to “Coincident World”
4. Now reference in the Topo.dgn while set to “Coincident World” and see if everything is where it should be. 

But in my trials the topo.dgn is to the west while the shape file comes in far east.

I have uploaded a zip file that contains all the relevant files and more written details. 

Thanks Again All and Take Care of yourselves,
