§         Next step is to name your file and go to the proper directory to save it.  i.e. C:\public\ur_folder.  At this point, your dialogue box should look something like the one shown below.  Now hit OK. This will take u back to the MicroStation Manager where you should see your file name that you just created and the directory u want to save it on.  Hit OK and will open up your new dgn file.
