That's my problem..... there is no "STL" on my save-as pulldown.

Oh wait.... you said "Save Copy As"..... well DANG... there it is.

I knew if I came to CD I'd get an answer. I've spent all day searching the online help and the Autodesk forums (which are going crazy today).

Everywhere they say.... do a "Save As"... no mention of "Save Copy As"

Here is a direct quote from the online manual...

"In the File Save As dialog box, set the file type to STL, and then click the Options button."

Thanks Nate!!
