Not offhand. It's not something I've had a need for. There is a Programming Forum that you can search for posts with similar ideas or example code. People there won't often write the code for you, but they can help you troubleshoot your own. If you do ask for help, make sure to list both the language you would be using and the specific version of whichever software you are using. There have been bugs, fixes and new capabilities added over the years, so version number is important.

If my suggestion answered your question, could you please click the "Verify Answer" button? In the future, people will search for this same thing, and know that there was an answer to this question.

Good luck!

This works, thank you Mary! Any ideas on how to replace folder paths for multiple TIF's using a macro?

Do you need to retain the original image?

The Raster Manager dialog has, under the Settings menu, an option for "File Name..." If you do not need to keep the older image, and are just looking to replace it with the newer one, you can use File Name... to browse to the path/name of your new file. That might do what you need, if that's what you are trying to do.

What is the exact version no. (e.g. v10.x.y.z) of MicroStation that you are using? Use key-in VERSION to see the version no. in the MicroStation Message Center, or Help→About MicroStation in the backstage.

See this blog that shows you how to obtain MicroStation's version number.

What is your current workflow when attaching a TIFF to a DGN model?
