Open the post with the mastercams editor. Do a search for pheader and edit as follows.

 

 

pheader$ #Start of file

sav_spc = spaces$

spaces$ = 0

"'",*progno$,"'", e$ *****************************(add qoutation mark apostrophy quotation mark, *progno$, qoutation mark apostrophy quotation mark,

 

A # sign is used to ignore an entire line,

 

you should end up with this result

 

'O150282'

if you are looking for a more general solution, there are two variables, scomm_str and scomm_end which are output at the start and end of every comment. If you change these variable from "(" and ")" to "'" and "'" respectively, you would match the output from your sample code.
