AutoCAD MEP 2010 to Navisworks 2009 pipes not showing up

[Anonymous]

I am trying to export out of AutoCAD MEP 2010 into Navisworks 2009, but the 3D pipe systems only show up as "boxes" in Navisworks. I have read many forums about installing the object enablers, then re-installing Navis, but this still doesn't seem to work. Does anyone have advice to try and get the 3D pipe work to show up in Navis like it does in MEP?

Thanks in advance,

Mark

Thank you for the posts, albeit they did not help me. I figured out my troubles on my own however. The trick was simply using ConvertTo3DSolids command within autoCAD MEP, selecting my pipes, typing YES, then opening the DWG file within Navis.

Thanks

Was your scenerio having AutoCAD MEP 2010 and NavisWorks 2009 on same machine?
... and it was 2010 and 2009 respectively?
