Whoa Fred.
No one is calling or even implying you are a liar.
I except that it does work - that was never in question. What I was
asking was for more information as to HOW to program it.
You say about "You can program it anyway you like " but we can't
BECAUSE we don't know how.
I am not asking about a product that's not yet released because I
don't know what hasn't been released.
As above you have said DeskCNC is released, That's the program I'm
asking about.

Sorry but I can't get over to NAMES or Rolands show, much as I would
like to attend the latter, maybe next year.
In the meanwhile I'm tied to the internet and groups such as this to
read up on latest releases.
Could you post a link to the documentation please.

No I have not tried to post cracked software sites, I cannot even get
past the registration screen.
Everytime I try it says something like "That username is similar to
another user please use a different name" but it won't accept any name
I try.
