No assembly selection

[swale74]

Dumb question here but I can't seem to find the what toggle was switched. I have two sub assemblies and I'm trying to join them to a larger assembly and now I can only select the component. No faces or edges are being selected. The filter is set to "No Selection Filter" and "Entire Assembly". I've rebooted the machine and started a new assembly model and same results. I must have inadvertently toggled something but for the life of me have no idea what it was or how to correct. Help please!

Swale,
If you can just hover your mouse on the component and wait for few seconds, you will have a 3 dots under ur mouse.
Then after clicking your mouse MB3, you will have a list of edge, faces and components coming in selection range.
Go through each face/edge/component and make a selection.

Hope following jpeg could help you.
