Your right John, size does matter.

It appears that if the length of either of the elements exceeds 10000 beyond
the point of intersection, the trim/extend will fail. This is too bad, this
is for a metric bridge girder macro.

Fred,

I've heard of this before many moons ago. It has to do with their size. Try
scaling
them down first, then trim, an rescale.
