My first post - I'm questioning the accuracy of a file that I am currently working on. Here's the scenario. I received a file from a vendor (Microstation format) and had it converted to Autocad (I don't know how this was done). I then received the file (3D) and flattened it using dxb.(whew)

How accurate is this file?

It might be better to use either Express Tools Flatten, or my version floating around here (search the forums or Exchange).

BTW, Welcome!

I used both DBX & Flatten, checked some dimensions and there were still some anomalies.
The most accurate solution was using the solprof command.

I'm happy now.
Thanks
