You are trying to load them using the CDU (SHIFT+7)?

As in : CDU > RTE > SEND (LSK3L) > FLTSIM FPLS (LSK6R) > NEXT PAGE/PREV PAGE to navigate through the flight plans saved in Documents\Flight Simulator X Files

Thanks Markoz

yes that is what i do. but if i come to
FLTSIM FPLS  and press LSK6R i do not get any flight planes which are saved under documents/Flight Simultor X Files. In the file are several Flight planes saved.

Strange. When I do that, it shows all the Flight Sim plans I have saved in Documents\Flight Simulator X Files.

I did have problems at one point, but is was with the 777 for FSX-SE looking in the C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files folder, instead of the C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Flight Simulator X Steam Edition Files folder. I'm not sure if I fixed it, or if it fixed itself. :-/

I solve the flight plan problem by using simple point a -point b GPS plans. I simple type in my destination airport in the LEGS section of the CDU and let the computer plot the course. I have never been able to load a flight plan for my document folders.

Create a flight plan using the default Flight Planner, and save it (use a simple name so it's easy to remember/find.
In the 777, open the CDU > RTE > SEND (LSK3L) > FLTSIM FPLS (LSK6R) > NEXT PAGE/PREV PAGE to navigate through the flight plans saved in Documents\Flight Simulator X Files, or Documents\Prepar3D v3 Files folder, and find your flightplan, select it, and it loads.
Chances are that you will need to add a DEP, and ARR, to the route so that the 777 follows the route properly.

My flight plan IS in my document folder and it shows up in the flight computer, BUT IT WILL NOT LOAD. Any ideas why? Thanks

How was the flight plan created (in FSX/FSX-SE/P3Dv3, or elsewhere)?
