Setup Sheet in Excel or Word

[Newbeeee™]

Hi All,

We normally use a hand generated MS Word template for our set up sheets.

I've recently been playing with the Mill Set and have it nearly (as always!) as we want it. But...

 

How do I get it to sort tools in tool number order and stop duplicate tool calls?

We want

T1

T2

T3 etc.

 

Also, is there any way that it could open a MS Excel template, and output the different fields into specific cells?

I assume that it might be easier to do this and get things where we want them, rather than outputting to a Word template?

 

Many thanks in anticipation,

Terry

Have you tried the X+ chook, that does everything you are asking for.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I briefly looked at the original one but by memory it didn't have lathe, so we stayed away.

I haven't looked at the latest though, as we have never gotten around to loading X3.

X4 is out soon, and we will be migrating to this. I also believe it has some set sheet improvements.

Cheers

You didnt state it was for Lathe. I think it still does not work in Lathe, sorry.

Bumety bump???

 

The main thing we want to do is to sort tools in order with no duplicates.

The excel/word query will be a later project.

 

Can anyone help...please?

Or do I have to wait for X4???

Cheers,

Does anyone know if there is a manual that covers this (duplicate tools and sorting)?

Thanks
