Hello,
I recently asked a similar question to this, but have refined what I'm looking for a little bit better:
I'm trying to apply storm sewer survey data (either a .csv file or .txt file with X and Y coordinates, elevation, and linking codes for as-built inverts) to a 2d linework drawing. I am using Microstation V8i Select Series 10 with GEOPAK (For clarification, not OpenRoads and not Inroads. It's possible for me to get OpenRoads, but it is my understanding that I don't need it to accomplish this). In order to do this, I am using a setup and seed file that should already have all the relevant standards and have it's features defined. I am under the impression that given the way the survey data is formatted, it's possible to import this survey data and have it auto generate the linework in a short amount of time (I was told that once I learn this, formatting the survey data will take most of my time, and "running it" in the drawing would be <5 minutes).
What I'm struggling with is importing the survey data. I have very little Micro-station experience, so I'm not really sure where to begin. I've attached example survey data and the linework the data was used to generate. This example uses Fiber Optic cable, but the process should be the same.

If anyone could point me in the right direction to start learning how to do this, that would be great! My hope is that I can accomplish this without mastering Microstation. If it's needed, I can go through the courses and learn these skills from the ground up, but I'd like to avoid that if possible as this is the only thing I would need to do in Microstation in the immediate future.
Thank you in advance for any help. I greatly appreciate it! Please let me know if there's any other information I can provide.
