LOTS of Questions and many of the questions depend on what you are doing and what procedure you want to follow. There can be several answers to each question. That's why you have all of those options. If the references display Red in the dialog, that means the references are attached, it's just, MicroStation doesn't know where to find them. If you place all the files in a single folder and that folder is the same one your file is in, MicroStation can find them. This is not a good way to work but it works . But what happens if you want to organize or you have several files with the same name with different graphics. That's why there is a Configuration Variable "MS_RFDIR" You can place this variable in the Project configuration file (.PCF) and point it to several locations. M-Sta. will look thru those locations in the order you set, until it finds the file with that name, and that's the one it will display. You can also set Variables, Point the variables to a specific location, then attach the References using those variables.
