I'm sorry about your frustration. This is baffling. It almost sounds like you have a different install or something so AG is creating the activity in a different folder.

To find out for certain, remember (or write down) what you name your activity when you create it using AG. Then use Start then Search then click "all files and folders" and see where this activity is. If it isn't where you expect it to be, that's the problem. When starting Activity Generator make sure you use the Open window to pick where the route really is. It sounds like the activity is there but you just can't find it.

If the activity is in the right place and it just won't load, post it here and Norm or I will take a look at the .act file and see if we can figure out what is wrong with it. While there can be problems with downloaded rolling stock that keep an activity from running correctly (usually resulting in "send/don't send", rolling stock issues will never cause an activity to simply not display at all.

Good luck, keep us posted.
