    With the new file structure introduced with V8, and the fact that EdG
    no longer exists for V8 files, I am wondering if fixable file
    corruption still exists. Basically, I am trying to justify upgrading
    Axiom's FileFixer (as well as their entire Productivity Toolkit) from
    V7 to V8. It seems that the chance of file corruption has been greatly
    reduced with the V8 file format.

    Also several of the tasks previously that required the Toolkit seem to
    have been integrated into MicroStation V8. Batch Process can do most
    of what Global File Changer can do. Cell editing is much simpler now
    reducing the need for Cell Manager. Cellutil.mdl can produce cell
    library catalogs further reducing the need for Cell Manager, etc.
    Furthermore, Axiom has reduced the number of utilities included with
    the V8 version from 20 to 9.

    Any thoughts or opinions about upgrading to Axiom's Toolokit for V8?
