As long as you have the skip nested module checked this works fine.<BR /> <BR /> The problem occurred while having a module selected &amp; right mouse clicking to update module it switched off the checkmark to skip nested modules all by itself. However when I updated the modules via hotlink manager all remains sweet. I suspect a bug??<BR /> <BR /> Regards Thu, 23 Oct 2008 20:57:17 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Project-data-BIM/My-Boathouse-Hotlinked-it-s-self-into-it-s-self/m-p/192732#M5591 Nick Schat 2008-10-23T20:57:17Z
