Selection Lockout

I'm new to the software and it is my job to learn it.

I've recently been hired to take over another individuals project in 3DS Max 8.

Unfortunately, I find myself unable to select vital objects within the 3DS environment.

Selection Lock Toggle is not on.

The merge type is "geometry." I have tried merging the essential objects into a new file with no luck. They merge but are not selectable.

Any ideas?

Thanks
