  • There are plenty of very good resources available that provide everything from "getting started" to advanced features in MicroStation (as well as other Bentley products). One is delivered with MicroStation... if you have MicroStation V8i installed on your computer, go to C:\Program Files\Bentley\MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries)...\Documentation\ (if you used the default locations when installing MicroStation), where you will find MicroStation.chm (see image below) and MicroStationV8iQuickStartGuide.pdf. 

      

    Both of those files contain information that will help you. You can also get to those help files by selecting the Help menu item in a MicroStation session.

    You will also find a number of options starting on www.bentley.com/training.

      

  • an alternative is to BUY... yes spend money, invest in your personal development.... very in expensive ebooks ( pdf) from

    www. ADAGEbooks.com ( around $7 usd with paypal)

    the best is "The survivors guide to v8 " yes its a bit dated now but for a total newbee like you its got every feature covered that you need to know  .. there are only a few extra features for advanced users in v8i that arent covered in v8 and right now you dont need them.. once you master mstn with this book you'll know enough to teach your self the extra advanced stuff from the help menu...and the whats new  in v8i  from the help is good for that too...

  • I agree - nothing better than the Adage books.

  • As a side regarding "Adage books", there is an article about Keith Little, the guy who was mainly behind that.

      

  • Very sad he is gone and I think the web site is down too... I want to contact his family for permission to distribute his mstn ebooks as I dont want to deny them any money no matter how small a sum is involved... or at least get permission to distribute free......anyone with Keiths Family contact details please  email me offline...
