How can i smooth these edges?

[DVeditor]

Let me make sure I understand - you want to smooth the top edges where the boolean operation took place right? Just making sure I understand. :D

yep, im trying to model the sony mz-n710 mini disk player...i've only been doing this for a couple of months. i just wanted to smooth the top edges, thats right.

Booleans are a little complicated to use, it´s like working with solids, but 3ds max works with surfaces and always makes a mess in your mesh. you will have to fix it manually but, i think that you will have better results if you extrude that area with a negative value and chamfer the edges
