Does anyone know how to edit a post processor? I have been waiting over a month for someone from Vectric to return an email. I think I know what to do but I am not sure what type document you need to open the PP in I tried word and it does not recognize the format and Excel asks questions about the format I have no answers for it asks about delimiters??

I am trying to get the PP to save the file format from .CAM to .DNC I have been able to look at it in excel but it makes me change the format and I don't know how to save it back in the original format. The PP is for my CNC knee mill.

Thanks Mike

You can use Notepad to edit the file.

I have used the ShopBot editor for editing the Post Processor files.
I have my company name and copyright date added automatically for each file it creates.

Thanks David I never thought about using the SB editor. I think I got it fixed I will have to run a file to make sure.
