Populating Chests

[BadgerAlumni]

Ok.... so, either I need another cup of coffee and another 2 miles on the treadmill, or I'm in need of serious help. So, I created my "special" potions, and want to place them in a pre-existing chest from another mod, but, every time I try, the only option I get from the TES Construction Kit is to "Delete" the previously existing item... tell me I'm missing something blatantly obvious?

 

Right clicking brings up the delete option, left clicking does nothing. Enter, PgUp, PgDwn, etc, do nothing.

 

EDIT: Jeez.... never mind, I AM not only a Noob, but apparently, I am the KING of noobs. Drag & Drop ftw.... horray windows 95 & later interfacing

Glad you solved that problem on your own... However I should mention that adding items from one mod into another mod is a "no no" with oblivion. Unlike in morrowind, this only causes problems in oblivion as the loading order of mods determines their ID numbers, while it may work at first, making any changes or adding any additional mods will only result in breaking the chest, and likely any subsequent saves. When adding anything, it's best to add it all within the same mod so that all things referenced in that mod either belong to the main .esm, or within a single .esp.
