Thanks, works great once I added the s. I figured it was going to be something simple.

I am trying to make the post display an error message and then exit. I looked at a few threads on here and it is almost working. In the error message section of the post I added this line highfeederror : "WARNING - HIGH FEED FUNCTION CAN NOT BE USED WITH DYNAMIC FIXTURE OFFSET - CHANGE SETTINGS OF MISC VALUES" #########BEN ADDED ENTIRE LINE 11-28-12 then down in the ptlchg_com section I added this line if mr1$ > 0, result = mprint(highfeederror), exitpost$ #########BEN ADDED ENTIRE LINE 11-28-12 When I post it the message box comes up when it should but will dispay an error message of "0." instead of the message I created. If I change (highfeederror) to one of the existing strings in the error message section it outputs the correct text for that message. I can't see any differance in the formatting of my line compared to the other lines. What am I doing wrong? Below is the entire error message section with the last line being the one I added. # Error Messages ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- srindxerror : "WARNING - ROTARY INDEX ANGLE DOES NOT MATCH MACHINE DEF SETTING - DO YOU WISH TO EXIT?" stindxerror : "WARNING - TILT INDEX ANGLE DOES NOT MATCH MACHINE DEF SETTING - DO YOU WISH TO EXIT?" stlorgerr : "ERROR - TOOL ORIGIN DOES NOT MATCH CENTER OF ROTATION IN POLAR MILLING" shomeserror : "ERROR - G92 WORK OFFSET, 'wcstype', DOES NOT SUPPORT TRANSFORM SUBPROGRAM" sprgnerror : "ERROR - SUBPROGRAM NUMBER MATCHES THE MAIN PROGRAM NUMBER" scompwarn : "WARNING - CUTTER COMP APPLIED ON ARC MOVE" smiscerror : "WARNING - MISC VALUES SET TO POST DEFAULT FOR CURRENT OPERATION" srotaxerror : "ERROR - MORE THAN 2 ROTARY AXES DETECTED IN SELECTED AXIS COMBINATION - OUTPUT MAY BE INVALID" srotlimwarn : "WARNING - ROTARY LIMITS EXCEEDED - CANCEL TO EXIT" stiltlimwarn : "WARNING - TILT LIMITS EXCEEDED - CANCEL TO EXIT" splungewarn : "WARNING - MODIFY LEAD-IN PARAMETERS TO PLUNGE AFTER FIRST MOVE" saxissuberror : "ERROR - AXIS SUBSTITUTION NOT SETUP FOR CURRENT MACHINE CONFIGURATION/TOOLPLANE SELECTION" syerror : "ERROR - Y-AXIS MOTION WITH NO Y-AXIS SET IN AXIS COMBINATION - CHECK AXIS COMBINATION AND ROTARY AXIS SETTINGS" spolarinterror : "ERROR - POLAR INTERPOLATION NOT SETUP FOR THIS MACHINE CONFIGURATION" sarcwarn : "WARNING - MISMATCHED ARC COORDINATE DATA" serr_badsim : "ERROR - POST NOT LICENSED FOR BOOTLEG SIMS - POST WILL EXIT" serr_checksim : "ERROR - POST NOT LICENSED FOR CURRENT SIM - POST WILL EXIT" serr_clock : "ERROR - POST LICENSING PERIOD ANOMOLY - POST WILL EXIT" serr_exp : "ERROR - POST LICENSING PERIOD HAS EXPIRED - POST WILL EXIT" serr_exp_day : "WARNING - POST LICENSING PERIOD EXPIRES TOMORROW " serr_exp_month : "WARNING - POST LICENSING PERIOD EXPIRES " serr_simtype : "ERROR - POST NOT LICENSED FOR SIM TYPE - POST WILL EXIT" serr_dsclm_acc : "ERROR - DISCLAIMER TERMS NOT ACCEPTED - POST WILL EXIT" saccept : "I accept the terms of the WARRANTY DISCLAIMER and LIMITATION OF LIABILITY." serr_machsim : "ERROR - POST NOT LICENSED FOR MACHINE SIMULATION - POST WILL EXIT" serr_fiveax : "ERROR - POST NOT LICENSED FOR 5-AXIS OPERATIONS - POST WILL EXIT" serr_threeplustwo : "ERROR - POST NOT LICENSED FOR 3+2 TILTED PLANE OPERATIONS - POST WILL EXIT" swarn_machsim : "WARNING - THIS MACHSIM FILE SET REQUIRES THAT THE CORRESPONDING MACHINE DEFINITION IS SELECTED" smachsimcompwarn : "WARNING - CUTTER COMP IN CONTROL NOT SUPPORTED BY MODULEWORKS MACHINE SIMULATION" smachsimwcswarn : "WARNING - USE OF NON-TOP WCS IS NOT SUPPORTED BY MODULEWORKS MACHINE SIMULATION" highfeederror : "WARNING - HIGH FEED FUNCTION CAN NOT BE USED WITH DYNAMIC FIXTURE OFFSET - CHANGE SETTINGS OF MISC VALUES" #########BEN ADDED ENTIRE LINE 11-28-12
