Follow Me - Ha I wish!

A cry for help.
I just cannot make the follow me tool work despite watch some tutorials on line.
The project is my barrister bookcases. I have taken the model of a single unit, stacked and aligned five of then and made them into a single component.
Looking at the back of the stack, I then drew a section of a possible crown moulding and moved it to the back right top corner of the stack.
Next I panned round to the front of the stack and tried to use follow me tool to pull the moulding section around the side, accross the fron and back along the second side.
Sometime the moulding will do the first edge and then stop, other (most) times the tool will do nothing.
Thinking that the faukt might be with my stack of bookcases, I drew a rectangle pulled that into a 3d shape and then added a simple square as a moulding section and that worked but I cant get my candiadte moulding to follow me around the simple shape and neither will a simple square mould follow me around the bookcase stack.
Does the moulding section need to be made a component? Trying to group it seems to fail
Help......
This is a screen clip of my starting point of top of the stack and my candidate moulding.
I just don't understand the problem. I'm using version 8.0.4811 which is the latest version my PC will accept
