Can you do this with 3ds Max 5?...

I have been making a model and I am trying to put together two different objects, my question is is there a way I can connect a vertice from one object to another vertice from another object? I know I cant weld them together but I just need them to be dead on each other.

It's in the main UI toolbar on a button called "snap". You will want to make sure that you are on a 3D snap (and not a 2D or 2.5D) and you will want to ensure that you tell it to only snap to verticies (all of this is clearly covered in the documentation that ships with the software).

if you got to different objects being 2 seperate meshes you might or first attach the to or turn on vertex ticks for one of the two so you actually have vertexes visable on both.
