Import Operations Bug?

[Rekd™]

This may have been covered, but when I import operations with 2 identical tools doing different roughing/finishing operations, it assigns the roughing tool to the finishing operations. Even with disable duplicate tool checking.

 

Is there a work-around?

If there is I sure would like to know what it is also...

 

I also have the same problem. Had a few close calls in the past by assuming the right tool was in there. I woke up pretty quick.

don't have a work around

just glad Im not the only one saying WTF

Makes me wonder

as SP2 is on the edge of release, we seem to still be finding or at least disscusing problems that we see. are we going to need SP3 or just deal with what never got fixed?

Rekd,

 

I tried it here and had the same problem at first. I think I found the problem though...

 

Disable duplicate tool checking during operation export, not just on import.

 

I am using 9.0 SP1, so this might not be accutate for you.

Rekd,

 

Just to verify, I tried it on 9.1 SP2 and it worked fine there as well. I know I shouldn't really have SP2, but I couldn't help myself.

LOL Paul, how's it look so far? (sp2 that is)

 

Thanks for the tip, I'll give it a shot in a few mins.

 

Mayday, I would think if they knew about a problem, it likely got addressed. Mayhaps not a fix, but at least looked at.

Why shouldn't you have SP2? Maybe the customers I have sent the SP2 disk to should send it back...

[Paul McGarr]

I really haven't spent any time with SP2 yet. I installed it hoping to see a "what's new in sp2" doc file or something that would show me what changes to look for. No such animal. Then I continued to read the thread and realized that it was not a complete release. I decided to wait for a final release before I jump in.

 

Better safe than sorry!

Paul Decelles,

 

I didn't know that SP2 was released. You are my dealer, so I expect I will see it soon! Man I am getting confused.

Hmmm, you have probably better read this (bottom of the page), it will make you feel better. No confusion, you want the SP2 install disk, give me a call and I will send you one. If you are having "issues" with 9.1 SP1, and want to get the patch installed ASAP, log in to the website and download the zip file. The zip file is the patch stripped down to it's bare components. Like it says in the downloads area, it will update the executables and such but does not contain the updated sample files etc... I still want you to get a complete install disk so you have everything, but the patch may resolve them until I can get the disk to you.

That did it, thanks again, Paul.

 

'Rekd teh I sit corrected

[Paul McGarr]

Rekd,

 

No problem. Glad I could finally directly help someone. I found myself racing to get my post up before someone else answered it first! You guys are usually too damn fast!

 

I feel kind of childish

Well, the confusion is mainly my fault, the whole thing started with a customer newsletter which was sent out on Friday letting my customers know that SP2 was out, apparently none of the other resellers had notified anyone of the fact yet, additionally, I made a download available to help out some of my customers that were having issues in an attempt to help them the best I could. The download was never meant for release to the masses and was never intended to be downloaded by the entire community, unfortunately an excited customer (hey, aren't we all excited to see SP2?) posted a link directly to the download on the S4a website, forcing us to put it in a restriced area.

 

Bottom line folks, yes, SP2 is available but you need to contact your dealer to get a copy. A full installation CD can be shipped to you. Hopefully this will clarify things a bit. I apologize for all of the confusion...

 

Ok, let's stop hi-jacking the thread now...
