Hey thanks for the reply....I figured it out... I was missing the rd_tlpathgrp$ command.
The code looks like this now:
sgrp_name #Define string variable for machine group name
sgrp_comment #Define string variable for machine group comment
psof$
sgrp_name = ucase(sgrp_name)
sgrp_comment = ucase(sgrp_comment)
pbld, n$, "(", *sgrp_name, ")", e$
pbld, n$, "(", *sgrp_comment, ")", e$
pprep2
rd_tlpathgrp$ #Reads Machine Group Parameters
pmachineinfo$
if prmcode$ = 19248, sgrp_name = sparameter$ #Group Name variable
if prmcode$ = 19111, sgrp_comment = sparameter$ #Group Comment variable
....Works like a charm! Thanks!

Newbie here...
I'm wanting to extract the Group Name & Comment from the Machine Group Properties and insert into the posted NC file at the top. I've found some documentation explaining the use of pmachineinfo$ postblock.
I've searched for related topics but didn't find anything. My code basically looks like this:
sgrp_name #Define string variable for machine group name
sgrp_comment #Define string variable for machine group comment
psof$
sgrp_name = ucase(sgrp_name)
sgrp_comment = ucase(sgrp_comment)
pbld, n$, "(", *sgrp_name, ")", e$
pbld, n$, "(", *sgrp_comment, ")", e$
pmachineinfo$
if prmcode$ = 19246, sgrp_name = sparameter$
if prmcode$ = 19111, sgrp_comment = sparameter$
However when I post, I get the following:

What am I missing?
