Hello,
Can I change the weight of an element in a dimension through Dimension worksheet ?
I have tried using DBSA command but it didnt seem to work....
or is there a faster way?

The weight isn't an attribute; it's specific to the consolidation that an element appears in, not to the element itself.

To change the weighting in an .xdi, you find the row on which the element appears underneath the relevant consolidation, and put the weighting in column C.
