Thanks, I am pretty sure that the school is still using X9 but not positive school just started and I gotta start building a OPOC 246 Engine Tuesday. is hard to use shop time effectively. was just trying to do all cam and computer work as homework. I will find out Monday. thanks for your prompt reply.

Does anyone know if there is any way possible to use X9 HLE anymore? the copy I used in class expired, and low and behold I now need it to do homework for tool & die. shop time is too valuable to spend it on a computer in the class. I really need to be running the mill and lathe. I need to do my design work at home to maximize shop time. I uninstalled it then got a "fresh" copy of X9 needs a license I downloaded the 2017 version and was totally lost with the interface changes. I really don't wanna take another Mastercam class to learn how to use it all over again, just wanna make a few parts and actually use the knowledge that I spent a semester learning. please help if anyone knows a way to still use x9 HLE. I am pretty sure that my school is still using it unless it has changed this spring. thanks
