Bentley’s SELECTseries 1 reading Civil 3D DWG

Another ‘strange’ topic for this blog.
But, hey, I’ve my education roots with Civil Engineering and if there’s something interesting about the software tools used in this branche I will let you know. But to let you know, my hart is with Civil 3D (and especially road design). 
Yesterday I’ve read in Twitter (via @EnvisionCAD) that Inroads, one of Bentley’s road design products can be used with both Microstation and AutoCAD products since 1999.
Today I’ve read an article (in Dutch) that Bentley’s SELECTseries 1 (and 2) can read DWG and even can read objects from Civil 3D through the installation of the Autodesk Object Enablers.
Beside the DWG and Object Enablers, Microstation also will read Revit files through the Autodesk FBX file format used for exchanging 3D information between several Autodesk products.
Now that’s interesting information and well done by Bentley.
Other new features of the Bentley SELECTseries 1 can be read here.
