XGL Save As not working on x64

Anonymous
Not applicable
Save Copy As XGL always throws an error "Cannot save the document with the specified file extension(it is not the right type.)" on any of our machines(x64) running 64 bit Inventor 2009. Our 32 bit machines operate fine. After looking for differences in version we find XGLTrans.dll has not been added to the 64 bit machines during installation. We know we can not copy the version from the 32 bit machines and register it as it will be a 32 bit dll and not work with a 64 bit application. We know this because our departments add-in that establishes modeling standards had to be re-created with Visual Studio 2005 to make a 64 bit dll. Our old 32 bit add-ins made with Visual Studio 6 no longer worked on the 64 bit machines. Where is Autodesk's 64 bit dll for exporting XGL and ZGL files? If it was just overlooked in the install we will be happy to place it in the correct location and register it. If not then when will we receive this file? In a hotfix? We would appreciate anybody's help with this manner especially Autodesk's. We realize this is just an oversight and hope a fix is coming for the probably small number of us who use XGL files. This is a huge disruption in our departments workflow as our larger assemblies can not be fully loaded onto the 32 bit machines to be exported.

Thank You,
