AutoCAD 2008 - Solid extrusion error - Lateral curve does not intersect to_surface

[Merlin]

Hi,
Back on AutoCAD after a slight hiatus. I'm currently on ver 2008 for the 1st time. Trying to do a 3d extrusion and coming up with this error message:

Modeling Operation Error:
Lateral curve does not intersect to_surface.

I created a closed 2D Polyline (at least that's what shows up on the propoerties) all points on the same elevation / Z value. No arcs in the polyline.....What's going on?!?!?!

Hmmm...I've got the extrusion now after "flattening" the polyline. I can't figure what went wrong in the first place though. At first I made sure the UCS was set to world and with that UCS setting I went to maximum decimal places. it showed no Z value differences
