thanks and I will keep a copy of the version I downloaded orginally.
I have it on floppy and its safe. I was wondering how does one get
doug to add new features to his cncpro or is that a long shot? It
sounds like he is "good" with fixing bugs if you address them but
what about adding more features? I would love to see different
feedrates for the different axis yet be able to use the same maxium
jog rate. I find the Z axis plunges to fast into the work piece with
one feed rate. I realize I can change the rate of the Z axis so it
will move much slower overall but then this also effects its maxium
jog speed making it next to nothing. Well I guess its another on
the "wish list." The first would still be a better set of directions
for the features in cncpro so I could understand their uses fully.
thanks again
