List the Configuration Variables
To get a listing of all of MicroStation's Configuration Variables, use this keyin which must be entered exactly as shown here: mdl load cfgvars printCfgVarResource . This keyin will create these two text files: cfgvars.txt and cfglong.txt. Jermey Calla adds: The location of the output text files is dependent upon how MicroStation is started when you execute mdl load cfgvars printCfgVarResource In Version 8.5 the files will be placed in the following locations: - If MicroStation was started by double clicking on the dgn file; then the files will be in the same directory as the design file. - If MicroStation was started using an icon, then they will be in the same directory as the Start In property on the icon. - If MicroStation was entered by activating the ustation.exe then they'll be in the same directory as the exe file. - In a ProjectWise environment, the files are placed in the ...\Program Files\Bentley\Program\MicroStation folder. In Version 8.9: - The files will be placed in the same location as the design file. - ProjectWise XM the files will be located in ...\Program Files\Bentley\Program\MicroStation folder.
