Hi,

Just thought I'd mention, in case it helps someone down the line, that I 
managed to get rid of the wierd Model situation and clean up the scene so that 
it was mergable again.

1. I saw the wayward models in the Scene Debugging window, where it showed a 
bunch of them at root level, but not visible in the explorer.
2. I Ran a script to list all models in the scene (this confirmed the hidden 
ones)
3. I Had the script inspect each Model, check it's visibility property (of 
which the hiddens models had none), and if an error was flagged, delete that 
object. (not much finesse but it did the job)

All clean again and no load/save errors about disconnected objects anymore.

VB code snippet for anyone who may find themselves in a similar boat of worms:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
set oObjCollFoundDuff = CreateObject( "XSI.Collection" )
set oObjColl = Application.FindObjects2(siModelID )

for each oObj in oObjColl
        on error resume next
                check=GetValue (oObj &".visibility.selectability", True)        
        
                logmessage oObj.name &" - "& oObj.type &" - "'& check           
                                     
        if err <> 0 then
            logmessage "-----------> GOTCHA YOU &^%*$ "
            oObjCollFoundDuff.AddItems oObj
        end if
        on error goto 0
next 

logmessage "Actual Num:"& oObjColl.count
logmessage "Duff Num: "& oObjCollFoundDuff.count

'deleteObj oObjCollFound

Hi again,

nope... cut it down to 15 or so, still too slow.

Guess I'll have to strip it it see what's going on.
.
.
(stripStripStrip)
.

I've stripped it down to nothing.. it's fast to duplicate a Pass again (well, 
there's nothing in the scene).

Scene seems really dirty though,

1. I can't even merge it into another scene without crashing soft.
2. If I search the scene for Models I get about 100 of them, but they're not 
visbile in the Explorer, I can't select them & I can't delete them.
3. Each time I load the scene, one of these Models becomes visible and I can 
delete it. I save the scene & when I reload it, another one of the Models 
becomes visible again.

Mucky stuff and typical for a Sunday evening of course.

Adam.
