X7 and importing operations

[Matthew]

In X6 when I imported operations it would assign tools already in the tool library that matched the imported operations, and then tools that didn't match it would assign as the next available tool number.

 

One of the first things I noticed in X7 when importing tools was that it would create an indentical tool even if there was already a matching tool in the library, and tools that weren't in the library were added but using the tool numbers they were saved with in the operations library.

 

For example, if I have the first 8 tools defined, with 8 being a spot drill, and imported 3 operations, a spot drill (T8), tap (T16), and a drill (T17), it won't assign the spot drill as tool 8 even thought it matches an already exisiting tool, and then then tap and drill will import at T16 and T17 instead of T9 and T10.

 

In X6 it would assign T8 as the spot drill without adding a duplicate tool, and the tap and drill were renumber to the next available tool numbers T9 and T10.

 

Has anyone else experienced this?

 

Thanks,

 

Matt.

I always import with tools, geo and wsc. Just make sure you have wsc set up and export and import with them on.
