Transitioning two different cross sections on different planes in NX6 2

[lurks]

I have attached a model I am working on in NX6. I am trying to create a smooth transition between the two faces. I have tried a multitude of things but am not seeming to get it. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Like this?

The mesh can be done in one step.

That is very similar to what I was able to do. I should have been more clear in my question. I have attached pictures of the part I'm trying to model. The difficulty I am having is in getting the flat along the side as it curves up. I don't know if this is something that has to be done in a separate operation or if it can be done in the meshing of the two cross sections.

Thanks in advance,

This drawing should give a few more needed details.

Thanks,

The drawing looks like something that can be built without resorting to surfaces. Take a look at this approach.

Would you be able to put that in NX6? I can't open it.

Thank you very much,

My apologies, I forgot that I had switched back to 7.5.

I think this is closer to what you're looking for.
