laptop and a wrench

Bug

If data is exported using the Export To CAD tool, and the default output path is changed to save the data to a different location, the .dgn extension is not added after the file name. If the data is exported without the extension, assuming that it will take the extension by default, the generated output file opens in MicroStation V8 but not at the correct location.
