DGN File Reader
Autodesk Navisworks can read 3D DGN and PRP files from Bentley's
MicroStation, but does not support CEL files or 2D DGN files. Referenced files
and instances of cells are respected, and the Selection Tree reflects this file

NOTE The file reader supports files from MicroStation 95, SE and /J. It does not
support MicroStation Modeler and any versions of MicroStation before 95.
