Thanks people. I have moved files to my HD and then try to open and have the same problem so I dont think its a network issue. And my hasp is local on this machine. I will try what Gcode mentioned and see what happens. If not I will resort to a format as CNC apps guy stated.. .Thanks to all for the help

Still having this stupid problem and its ruining my day by the minute.. Every single file that I open whether its a file merge or a dbl click on the file icon or even a fresh open all I get is the part and a box telling me that the parameter is incorrect.. WTF WTF- this is BULL... I have reloaded all defs and no change.. Anyone have anymore ideas.. I am going on 2 wks with this.....

I been having problems with the saving lately. I keep getting a windows write delay error.. Dont have any idea what is causing it .....

I tried a cpl times.. Now either the same one shows up or the one that says this file cannot be read because it is from an earlier version of MX..

I just found out that an update for windows was installed tday. . Has the latest one for windows caused anyone else problems.

As of ten minutes ago every file I open has a error box saying the parameter is incorrect. And the only thing in the file is the part all ops are GONE..

Just throwing this in here, If you verify is good than perhaps you are getting a dogleg somehwere that is cutting off your pins. This has happened to me more than once. Try changing your retracts a bit and see what happens.

SOLIDWORKS IT IS -

Thanks Nils, _

ras2vec - how to import a file. I looked it up in the help file and it said to use the art menu. ?i dont see a art menu..

Thanks cadman. have a great day...

I remember this topic discussed before but had no luck digging it up, All my input boxes have stopped doing calculations in x3 on xp 64 bit windows.. I think it was registering a certain dll file and it works again.. Anyone, Anyone, you, how about you can you help me..

Its hard to say- is the tip angle the same for both drills? also carbide tends to be a bit more brittle and chip or break easier than hss.. there has been allot of good things said about Guhring drills on the forum and I can vouch they are very reliable. Do a search for Guhring and check out some of the things these people are doing with them.. hth.....

I have done it 10 times to every diff location. I have even created a folder named NEW and nothing. MX processes it like something is happening but no tools ever show up in the specified folder. Screw it im starting ova...

I am selecting diff directories and the old library is not showing up in the new one..

I listed the directories im using in the first message. Do you see a problem with what im selecting

JP, the only import under file is import directory..

Here is the story I used the import directory .

Import from files of type = Mastercam X files {*.MCX}

From this directory = c:mcamx-x2milltools. (i renamed this file when installing X3..)

To this directory = c:mxamxmilltool.

Now when I open the tool manager and select my libraries the ones I want are not in there..

YES - Racerx you are the man..

Do you know why just this one op would have diff integers than the rest??

Let me add - This is only happening to one tooplath if posted not any others in the machine group...

I just posted a path that had already been posted yesterday and kow I have diff code output.

N100G20

N110G0G17G40G49G80G90

/N120G91G28Z0.

/N130G28X0.Y0.

/N140G92X-10.Y-10.Z10.

N150T2M6( 1/4 BALL ENDMILL)

N160G0G90X-19.7396Y-.2732

N170S6000M3

N180G43H2Z3.

N190Z.003

N200G1Z-.007F50.

The 3 lines with the (/) block delete sign have never posted before and my (#6) G110 is missing..

Any ideas why this is happening!!!!.

I am currently using both Streaming teacher and eapprentice both have there upsides. If you got the $$ sign up for both there is allot to learn there......

Yes the update is installed...

I just use the link at the top of my screen. No password required.

I think this is what Golderak stated because if its not working on restart you might not have permissions to the folder its in.

Thanks for the responses... And here we go !!!!

well you're a busy guy tday...
