 There will now be an option of inserting this data By Level or Flat (default).

 I chose the default (Flat). Another window will now come up. This DGN file does not have an associated projection with it so I chose Use scene projection. The DGN file or any file actually, does not need to have an associated projection with it. As long as you already have a scene projection set, this file will project on the fly.

 If your data doesn't come into view on the scene, right click the BLOCKS layer that was added and select Zoom fit.

 If you added your data By Level, this is how it will look like in your Layers Description box.

 You can turn any Level on and off by clicking the checked box to see it on the scene.
