combining meshes with ofusion (solved)

Hey i realise this is very newbyish question but im new to 3ds modeling and ofusion with ogre
im currently using 3ds Max 9 and ofusion 1.8.6 i think the latest at any rate
ive made a model of a moniter its about 8 rectangles a cyclinder and a few textures when i export using ofusion it creates the osm file and 1 mesh file for each primitive how do you make a single mesh containing all the combined primitives

im generally creating simple models one by one i dont want to use a whole scene from ofusions importer is it possible to combine meshs like this?

the whole moniter is 1 object so it doesnt need to be individually selected by its components the moniter is currently an editable mesh and a group if i try to select any individual component it selects the entire moniter in max but when i export using ofusion it is still composed of the individual primitives

could someone please explain the process in detail if it is possible i have checked the readme and the forums with no useful luck yet
thankyou

never mind all works now just had to ungroup and do the attach thing for all objects in the scene

You can also simplify the process by simply hitting the collapse all button in 3dmax' Tools section.
