Hi guys.
I'm back running on SolidWorks 2009 SP4 (after 3.5 years).

I have two lofts merging on a part. How can I select the edge between them to create a fillet? It wants to select the faces and I don't see an option for selecting the edge.
Attached is a .jpg.

You might have a tough time getting the mold cavities to form with multiple/overlapping surface bodies like that. I've not tried it before, but it doesn't sound like something that would work without lots of manual attention and plenty of features.

To fix the problem I added the fillet on the mold after it was created.

Didn't you create the mold directly from the part?
I think I would figure out how to model the part.
 
I modeled the part with the surfaces, then created the mold from the part. I was initially trying to add the fillet onto the part.
