If I got to op manager and select edit common paramaters ...I do not have the new selections "change nc file name" and "change pgm #" I read the bug fixes in the HTM file and these should be there. Did I not install correctly?

  17. I HAVE BROUGHT SOME VERSION 9 FILES INTO X and played with them..moving geometry,changing tools drawing additional lines ..playing with WCS planes ETC.This has helped me ,rather than starting with a blank screen.This way you are familar with many simple things right from the start.
  18. actually I fixed my problem yesterday.I went into EXPLORER AND SELECTED ...TOOLS,FOLDER OPTIONS,FILE TYPE (TAB) AND "REASSOCIATED" my nc file with the new cimco editor from version 9 MR105.I had uninstalled my older version 9 sp2 which my nc files were associated to I think that was my problem cause I am good to go!

I have a similar problem.I cannot open files using cimco outside of MASTERCAM.If I browse and find the .exe it just does not default to it.It doesn't even come up as a selection to open with.This only happened after x-install.I can open up the cimco editor within m-cam 9 or X but not through explorer. I am running Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 2 I dont know where to get help for this one ....other than this forum. Any help would be appreciated!
