Mine look like: G36* X157480Y32283D02* X163386Y32283D01* X163386Y36614D01* X157480Y36614D01* X157480Y32283D01* G37* G36* X181102Y36614D02* X175197Y36614D01* X175197Y32283D01* X181102Y32283D01* X181102Y36614D01* G37* I wouldn't know how to derive the respective component name from that ... -- cheers, Joerg .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
