VBS script help again-Mick?

[John T.]

This is addressed to Mick as he recently helped me with an issue on a doc sheet VB script program I had, but feel free to contribute.

 

Mick, if you will recall, you helped me with our VBS doc sheet program, it was messing up the tool listing when we had a transform toolpath.

 

Now another issue has cropped up. Its only recently come to my attention though.

 

It seems that when a program goes back to an earlier tool, it messes up the tool listing by putting in lines like "T0 Tool N/A 0 0 0"

(tool number, tool name, diameter, flute length, and overall length).

 

I believe that there just needs to be some kind of subroutine that checks for previous tool numbers and skips over ones that are already used. Does this sound correct? I can always send you the program again, and possibly a program that causes it.

 

Thanks,

John

Hi John,

 

if you could zip the script and sample file together and mail it to me I am more than happy to take a look at it.
