    Anyone using WindChill PDM with Autocad? Specifically wondering how
    well it handles xrefs. We're a multi-discipline firm who relies heavily
    on references. Drawings are typically 2D plant design. Windchill is
    being suggested to replace the current DMS as another group is already
    using Windchill and there's a desire to consolidate. By any chance does
    Windchill support MicroStation?

    This is not true, PDMLink does have a workgroup manager for AutoCAD.
    It handles X-refs, creating a CAD document structure and even sync
    attributte values between AutoCAD and PDMLink and any WTParts..
    I tested the manager for a while and i was very impressed.
    Currently the latest version of the manager supports AutoCAD 2005 but i
    have tested it with AutoCAD 2006 and have not been able to reproduce
    any errors.

    As far as i know there is no workgroup manager for Microstation, you
    can still upload and download .DGN files as regular documents but
    PDMLink will not be able to understand any referances between them
    unless you create theese manually within PDMLink.
