I don't know if this makes the difference or not. But I didn't know in my earlier post what the button I was clicking on was called, so I checked. I click on the Load Object button and then browse to where I store the Poser pz3 files. I see a list and I pick the one I want and it loads my poser model into the scene. It sounds to me like others use the import button. Right? If you haven't already, you might try both to see if either one makes a difference. But maybe the difference is the 4.02b patch. I haven't tried that yet. Kevin
