Configure ProE for EFX?

Anyone know how to tell Pro/E you have the Expert Framework Extension and
where it is?

Running WF4 which is installed on our server, not the local machines.
Installed EFX parallel to Pro/E on the server
The start-in directory is %USERPROFILE%\pro\wf4_home
I added the following to my config.pro
toolkit_registry_file P:\wf4-m060\efx6.0\text\protk_wf4.dat

I now have an EFX 6.0 menu in ProE, but all the menu items are grayed out
except for Delete and Info.

Are you creating an assembly before accessing the menu bar? EFX works from the assembly mode using datum curves and planes to create the beams. You would not have the menu bar without EFX starting up.

And the menu items will not become active until you have an assembly open in the active window.
