1. You can get DGNLinkLite from http://www.decisiongraphics.com/ - Decisiongraphics discontinued DGNLinkLite for awhile and you could only buy the full version (DGNLink) but, they have re-instated it lately.
2. As I have been informed from Bentley themselves MicroStation V8 supports both DGN and DWG
see http://www.bentley.com/products/microstation/ for more information.
If you are like me and would Bentley to produce a new program that would do just the conversion of DGN to DWG or DWG to DGN please do what I did and send them an Email. All their contact information is at their website.
The best way that I have found to convert Microstation drawings (DGN's) to AutoCAD drawings (DWG's) is to save as DWG in Microstation. There are a few 3rd party converters on the market. I have tried DGNLinklite but, I found that not all the drawing entities came acrost into AutoCAD. DGNLinkLite just excluded about half of the drawing entities.
I did come acrost a bug with converting files this way. The bug was with regular polylines. The polylines would not trim and refused to be broken. To fix this I converted the polylines into LTpolylines and had no more problems with them.
Good Luck
Jim
