x+ editing with word

[jesse@desemco]

I am trying to edit an X+ tool list with word and I am getting this error message.

Missing file: \\X+\default_tl.css

I have the newest verision from the GMCCS website and it is installed in the default location. I have been using this setup sheet for years and I LOVE IT. But I really need to be able to edit it before I send it to the floor.

I have just changed jobs and I am trying to get mastercam setup the way I had it before. I have everything (almost) except for X+ running the way I want it. Has anyone else had this problem, and do you have a fix.

There is a "default_tl.css" in the public\documents\x+ folder.

Any help would be great.

thanks in advance.

 

 

 

Also thanks Gunther for the outstanding work that you have done.

Did you move the setup sheet after it was created? It sounds like you did.

 

I can only relate it to the Excel sheet since that's all I've ever used. When you create the sheet, it gets created/saved in the default folder (C:\users\public\documents\x+ in X6 <--going from memory). When the sheet appears on the screen, if you "Save as" and save it wherever you'd like (job folder?), it will save the sheet along with any supporting files, such as .css, images, etc in another folder and the sheet will be directed to this folder so it finds it's assets. From the error that you have, it can't find it's assets.

 

Try re-creating the sheet and "Save as" to where you want it and see if that works for you.

Thanks Thad.

That worked.

That is odd that I didn't have to save it that way before, but that is a change to my procedure that I can live with. Thanks again for the help.

Were you running a different version before? The way the program works has changed as it has been updated over the years. I just recently updated from X2 so I'm just now getting things figured out myself.

I was running the newest version ,but I had already reloaded an older version with the same results. But it is working now. I don't mind having to save the file first. I should be saving the file to the proper place anyways. thanks again for the help.
