How can i compress all files dgn in folder automatically ?
You have to set scheduled task which does that.
You can use either Microstation or OFFVIS or Unfrag or EcoSqueeze or Defrag.exe or CFBF optimizer tool.
Of course Microstation is preffered as other utilities only compress unused space while Microstation allows to also delete unused elements.
in v8i we used to change the microstation manager view non windows so you could see the compress folder option.. but a simpler way in both v8i and connect is to use the batch processor tool to select all in the folder and run the compress command in your script

Actually this trick with changing back to MS Manager this still possible in CONNECT. Compress works but trying to open any file using old file open window results in crash.
See the following wiki:

After setting up the batch job you can run the batch through a command line:

You should be able to use the Windows Scheduler to run the batch process automatically as desired.
Thank you sir !
