Hi

I'm an inventor Noob. I've downloaded Inventor 2008 Professional form the BirstBase ste and I've built several parts & assemblies.

I'm trying to save a part out as a STL file to see what it would cost to do a rapid prototype.

Trouble is, I can't get any file types other than .ipt to show up on the "save As" pulldown.

Things I've done:
1) I've made sure that mine is a single part, and not an assembly
2) I've verified that I'm running a "part" application.
3) I've loaded all the add-ins, including the STL translation & restarted the program.

So... how do I get .STL types to show up in the "Save As" box .
See attached image of what I see when I try.
