Hi,

We're working with a large(ish) oracle spatial dataset extracting to 
DGN files.  We're using a custom grid to provide a fanout attribute 
and the output is tiled.  Basic desctiption of the current process is:

Database -> Processing -> Sorter -> Clipper (using custom grid) -> 
Attribute Filter (level) -> outputs

It seems to me that it would be more efficient to process one 'tile' 
at a time and write that DGN file rather than the current way it's 
working - reading the whole database and peocessing the whole lot in 
one go splitting the features into the relevant DGN file on output.

Would I be right in thinking the simplest method of organising this 
would be to create a batch script and use input variables indicating 
which area of the database to read from?

Alternatively (as we're not too interested in the speed of this 
extraction) could I disable the creation of the huge temporary files 
that are generated?

Regards,

Iain Thacker
