Alright.... Before i ask any questions i have to say i love maya, im an experienced 2d artist and have been working wioth 3dstodiomax lightwave for a couple of years and am now figuring out that maya IS the best 3d application any artist could use........ If ya didnt know?!!!! lol

I downloaded all the free tutorials and im on the cartoon dog tut...
Well i got the whole dog and now its time to UNION all the limbs and such together.... well it seems like im missing something because im folowing the video too the "T" and for some reason its not letting me union anything.

Now... i can open a new document in maya and simply union a sphere and a cylinder, but when i deform them a little bit and try to union them it doesnt work...???

STEPS

Head and neck Union.

1.)Their nurbs and i press enter as i select each object singly.

2.)Then i go and convert them to polygons.

3.)Then i select the head after being converted to poly's as it says and i click on union with control points checked in options box.

And nothing happens!!!!!

Is their a setting im forgetting????
Plz Help.............

Im usually smart about things like this but this is giving me a headache!!!!
