Hi,
I am using a 2 merge modules from autodesk that fails on install. I have attached one of them for review.
I have contacted autodesk and they are saying that the problem is that do not work with you product specifically.
Is there a way to resolve this issue? I have tried just the merge module itself and as part of my install but I am still having problems.
Thanks,

Robert,
Can you post a URL where I can download the merge module so I can create a sample project? I will check what the problem may be.

Hi,
Thanks for response.
I have posted one of the files here:

Just unzip and you will have the merge modules.
Thanks,
Robert

Robert,
It appears that the Merge module is trying to create registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\\\Applications\\SceneOE
instead of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Applications\\SceneOE.
There is a double back slash that is causing the error. Please contact autodesk and let them know this.

Thanks for reply.
How do I make that change myself?
I have posted a response to my rep there and see what he says, but I have funny feeling they are not willing to make the change.
I will let you know what I hear.
Thanks
Robert

Edit the merge module with Orca. In the registry table, look for the entry where it is trying to write key:
[ODBXHOSTAPPREGROOT]\\Applications\\SceneOE
and change it to [ODBXHOSTAPPREGROOT]Applications\\SceneOE
That should do it
