Problem with fasteners

Hello! I have a little problem creating fasteners in Pro Mechanica. When I have defined the two reference edges that the fastener should use and press OK I get an error-message saying: "The fastener is shell/solid. Please redefine the fastener." What have I done wrong?

If you have a threaded hole don't select the edge of the thread, but rather, select the edge of the bottom of drilled hole. Also, you have to make sure that you're selecting proper type holes for the fastener you're trying to create - eg. for a "Bolt" it has to be a thru hole...
