You can find a lot of help on the [AUGI NavisWorks Forum|http://discussion.autodesk.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=6089738&tstart=0#6089738]

The help file is very in depth, there are good tutorials on [Autodesk Subscription|http://www.autodesk.com/subscriptionlogin] if you subscribe.

You can also find good classes at [AU Online|http://au.autodesk.com/?extrafield=ms_description&allwords=1&nd=m_asearch&akeywords=navisworks]

How do you ensure that the insertion point is the same on the files? I am trying to insert a file from Revit Architecture and Revit Structure but I can not seem to get them lined up without a lot of work. All of the tutorials and such I find they seem to just line up as they bring them in.

To ensure your models are aligned I highly suggest seeing the BYU tutorial.  http://cmfac.groups.et.byu.net/miller/cm411/help/navisworks/Navis11.php  Granted, I am biased as I wrote the tutorial when I was still going to school there, but it still holds true.  If you have additional questions feel free to contact me.  michaelnsmith86@gmail.com In general, the best way is to ensure your origins truely are in the same location.  Revit origins are actually arbitrary where they are formed initially.  If you are using a normal CAD system, ensure your ucs is set to the Revit origin.
