Hi Andy,
Hmmm...I can import all three .dat files that way, but I can't seem to combine
them. For instance...if I copy the pieces that make up the minifig file and
then change the active model to the guardhouse file, I cannot paste those
pieces in. Is there another approach I should be using?
The problem I have is that two parts show up in my 7834final.dat file
(guardhouse.dat and 7834fig.dat) that other people won't have if I post the
7834final.dat file as is...

| Ok, I think I understand. If I understand correctly, you just want to place the sub files into your main file so that they display in the correct place? Try this: Drop down the Active Model list, just above the list of pieces in your model. Remember (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
