Standard V7 CADD Files and Documents

These standard files were developed for use with MicroStation version 7.01.04.10 and other software by T.D.O.T. designers.  Others may download and use at their own risk.  No warranty is given. All files are self extracting archives unless noted otherwise. DO NOT download these files for use with MicroStation version 8, in most cases they are not compatible.
 
If anyone is not receiving our update notices and needs to be notified when updates are made to the files available from this web page they should contact Dennis Minton by e-mail at Dennis.Minton@state.tn.us and ask to be added to the Design Division's internet web page update notification group.

     Click Yes.
4.  The PowerArchiver Self-Extractor window will appear.
     If needed click the "..." button to browse and set the download directory
      Click Start.

 
By default the PowerArchiver Self-Extractor window will be set to the Download Location indicated with the file descriptions. In most cases this will be where the files need to go. If you are not sure, use Windows Explorer, etc. to find these directories. If they are on a different drive or directory you will need to set the download locations. These default locations are based on the following software directories:
 
  MicroStation   C:\Bentley  
  Geopak   Location of software does not matter  
  TDOT Geopak Standards   C:\Program Files\GeopakStandards  
  MS Office   C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office  
  Interplot Client   C:\program files\interplot client  
  Iplot   C:\Program Files\Common Files\InterPlot  
  InRoads   C:\win32app\ingr\InRoads  
  InXpress   C:\win32app\ingr\InXpress  

Netscape Navigator users:
Due to the way this software functions it is necessary to save the self extracting archive to your hard drive prior to exploding. Once done, use Windows Explorer, etc. to find the EXE file. Double click on it to run the PowerArchiver Self-Extractor and explode the files.
