    In chapter 7. Just came into town, and Chief Inspector hired me to clear out the thieves guild with the Amn soldiers. Which I did...BUT the door to Linvail's quarters is locked. I killed his buddy the mage, who has 'Aran's key' but the door still wont unlock. It can't be picked and knock wont work.

    I have gone into Shadowkeeper and given myself another one of 'Aran's Keys' but it still wont open. My nearest save game is back in the underdark, I have no interest in redoing the last 2 hours of the underdark.

    Thanks,

    Stu

    Nice name! - the following is pretty spoilerish.
    I think you may have misinterpreted the quest. In chapter 3 you can attack the Thieves guild by request of the vampire Bodhi, but you do not get this option after the underdark.

    After the underdark (Chapter 6) you will be asked by the elves to take out Bodhi, you can then get help from Dritz, the Order of the Radiant Heart and the thieves guild (through Aaron Linvail). You should not be attacking any thieves at this stage.

    @Stu
    Its a quest from a mod mate, as I have done it a few times too.

    @Stubaru
    Ummm, there are two keys from what I remember, one held by the mage and the other by the fighter who ambushes you in the room with the fake buildings...

    It's from Quest Pack, I believe.

    Stubaru: There is a button you have to click on to open that door.

    Dan Simpson: Go up the northwest passage (x 1100 y 1600). At the fork, turn right and
    go up. Make your way across this bridge, through the enemies until you
    reach the room with the false buildings. Beware of traps in here, they
    will Maze you. Head up the northeast passage. This will be heavily
    trapped. Here you will find a big red glowing button (x 3550 y 300).
    Push it to open the first door.

    It's Quest Pack, yes. I'm glad it turned out to be working.
