Hi Pro Gurus
I was reading the help files and came across the statement:
The tool name (Name) is used throughout Pro/NC to identify the tool. You can
store the tool's parameters in a text file and then retrieve it to use in a
different manufacturing process. Name serves as the name for this parameter
file, therefore, all the operating system's restrictions for file names
apply to Name (for example, it cannot contain spaces or periods). The name
must be less than thirty-two alpha-numeric characters long.
Note: The tool name cannot contain hyphens (-). Underscores (_), however,
can be used.
In our ignorance we did not know this and virtually all our tool names
contain hyphens. Has anybody had any problems with this? Why I ask is that
we get the odd anomaly happening from time to time and never been able to
tie it down to something. We are using WF2.
Best regards
Steve
