or if there is a way to program one?

Thnax.

HAAS VF-OE

sure rick, that will be nice, thanx.

tmalena,thanx for the tip.

that will be nice and easy, but okuma floppys they are format to okuma i.g.f format, when you put the floppy in the pc, it ask you to format the floppy to pc.; it does not recognize the format.

thnx

we have a couple of crown lathes, the operator is on vacation and he only uses floppys to save the I.G.F files, some floppys are missing now, the question is;

is there any software that will allow me to save copys of these 10 or 15 floppys?

we need some kind of back up system here, any help will be appreciated a lot.

thanx.

thanx allan and ron, i appreciated very much.
