Is there any documentation on the absolute basic essentials to implement when porting from V8i mdl's to Connect?. I have written a few mdls in the past and want to now re-compile them for Connect. I have no idea where to start, and am not familiar with Windows programming. I previously made use of Select Series III SDK - I am lost in unfamiliar territory. I am hoping there is a fairly easy way out!

The move from 32-bit MicroStation V8 to 64-bit MicroStation CONNECT requires more than a recompile. First, you need the C++ compiler and linker supplied with Visual Studio, and you need the right version of Visual Studio.
The MicroStationAPI is mostly a C++ interface. There are one or two remnants of MDL, but don't count on them. Think 'classes' not 'procedural' code. Examine the sample apps. delivered with the SDK. Ask more questions here.
