CONNECT: followed the directions to install our DOT workspace files and they look like they loaded but I am unable to select them at the start up, it freezes.

Question

How do I get it so my DOT workspace can be selected without it freezing up?

I took a quick spin through NYSDOT's connect standards and Mary is correct. 
 Generally with an ORD based workspace all or most of the resource files will be placed in the Organization-Civil\DOT_Name folder. The workspace will then load those resources using a variable $(CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_STANDARDS) for the path. That path uses $(CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT) as the basis for the path. 
 In ORD the CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT variable is defined in the WorkSpaceSetup.cfg file. It is not defined in the WorkSpaceSetup.cfg that ships with MicroStation. If you put the Organization-Civil folder in your Microstation folder you should be able to add: 
 CIVIL_ORGANIZATION_ROOT = $(_USTN_CONFIGURATION)Organization-Civil/ 
 to MicroStation's WorkSpaceSetup.cfg and have it work
