one element in two levels

Hi 

I have a water distribution system drawn in microstation where all the pipes have been classified by their sizes ( by several levels). my boss wants me to add another level to the drawing which indicates the content of pipes (rather than their sizes) but he wants this two levels be linked together so that every time they make a change on let say level 1 level 2 can automatically be updated accordingly ( without manually assigning the changes). is there such an option in Microstation. If anyone can help me I will be very grateful.

Thanks

    It's not exactly clear what your boss wants.  From your description the best fit, as Lorys suggests, would be a GIS tool such as Bentley Map.

    Another way to indicate the content of a pipe would be to use MicroStation tags.  You could create a tag set named, say, pipe data, and add tag definitions to that set including contents.  Then tag each pipe with that tag set and apply the relevant data. 

    You can read more about tags and tag sets in MicroStation help.
