How does a post know what TXT file to use?

Today I was working on a post delevoped from

MPMASTER, but it was using the TXT file from MPGEN5X.

It wasn't doing that yesterday. I thought there

was a way to force a post to use a specific TXT file, but I can't find it.

The post is supposed to use the text file with the same file name (but the .txt extension), e.i. the post Mpmaster.pst is supposed to use Mpmaster.txt.

 

However, the .txt file is not loaded if you change post from post dialog in the Operation Manager. If you need to change post while a file is open, you should do it from the menu, at Main Menu -> NC Utils -> Post Process -> Change. Then the .txt file is also loaded.
