time inquirer to the Bldg Sim forum, and I have just been posed with a question
from my boss to which I don’t know the answer. Is it possible to
import a gbXML file into Equest? We are trying to collaborate our design
efforts with our client, an architect working in Revit, who has send us a gbXML
file to use for our energy modeling purposes. Are their other software
suites that will convert gbXML to a regular Equest *.inp file?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
