Renaming files

[connormac]

I had an older file that I had programed awhile back with MC9. I reloaded it on my computer. Only the MC9 file, no .nci or .nc . I wanted to rename it from "0020-78987 REV 1" to "0020-78987 REV 1 OP 1". But when I try to post it it trys to save it under the old file name in the .nci file.

in ops manager right ckick on the toolpath group go to options change nci destination give it new name

Mayday it correct.

Another thing to watch for is if you "merge" in other files or toolpaths, you may need to change the "nci" destination.

I have had this happen before,and some of my tools would not post out because of this.

Yes you can tell we are machine shop geeks. That is just a number I pulled out of the air because I had worked on it this past week. Small world

Thank for the help. I will try to remember to do that from now on. Of course it would help if i would name it the right thing first. dyslexia and forgetfulness. Bad combination for a machinist
