Get The Microstation Command, Edit Tags Is Also Used To Edit The Tagged Cells From Within Each Contract

This guide provides clear and detailed instructions on using the Microstation command 'Edit Tags' to manage tagged cells within each contract. Whether you are a beginner or experienced, this resource aims to support you in navigating the process effectively.

Follow the steps to edit the tagged cells in your contract using the Tag Manager.

1. Click ‘Get Form’ button to access the form and open it in the editor.
2. Navigate to the menu bar and select CTDOT 2007 Utilities > Tag Manager > Run Tag Manager to initiate the Tag Manager application.
3. Select 'Add Design Files' and browse to choose the design files you wish to edit. You can add multiple files from various folders, and import from a ProjectWise Plot Organizer file if needed.
4. Once you've compiled your list of design files, click 'Scan for Tags'. This will automatically scan each file for tag sets and write the tag information to an Excel file named TagData.xls.
5. Utilize the built-in macros in the Excel file to sort data by column or copy values down as necessary. This can be particularly useful for updating repeating information such as project numbers or titles.
6. Return to the Tag Manager window in Microstation and click 'Set Tags'. Accept the dialog box prompt to import the tags and update the files with the information from the Excel file.
7. You can save your list of tags by selecting 'Save Design File List' or access it again by selecting 'Open Design File List' within the Tag Manager.
8. If you encounter a notification indicating that a file is currently opened by another user, it will be accessible in 'Read-Only' mode, meaning tags cannot be written to that file.
