10 Check if the shortcut works as it should.
For the exercises, it is no problem to leave it like this. But if you prefer to install
the complete transformation information for the southern Ontario area, do the

3 If Bentley Map is installed standalone, copy the extracted file
MAY76V20.gsb to the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\
MapStandalone V8i\MapStandalone\GeoCoordinateData\Canada\
Nad27Nad83.
If Bentley Map is installed as an application to MicroStation, copy the
extracted file MAY76V20.gsb to the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\
Bentley\MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries)\MicroStation\
GeoCoordinateData\Canada\Nad27Nad83.
