    Can you attach it to a blank file as a reference, then copy through the
    elements?

    If it's not too big you could post it to the News Group, or email it to me
    by replying to this email and I could try

    Failing that, there is a utility called EDG provided with MicroStation for
    fixing files. I can't remember where it is in MS95 but if you search the
    bentley directory for edg.exe you'll find it. In explorer, drag and drop the
    MicroStation design file onto it. When it opens, assuming it doesn't say it
    is not a valid design file, type "repair whole", then "exit".
