Sorry for the delay JP, but I've been on the road (Toronto) and am just getting caught up on my email. I'm copying this to the users group since this is a general question and all can benefit from it. (You have to share the wealth)
Without seeing the rest of your macro, here's my suggestions for your syntax problem. // declare string variables STRING:#SM_PATH // open Job Info section of planner for access JOS_CONTEXT_OPEN[BASEITEM=16, USERNAME=""] // extract machine path string #SM_PATH = JOS_STR(mach_path) // close planner JOS_CONTEXT_CLOSE[] I hope this helps. ============================================= Fred Lauzus, CAM Programming Coordinator High Steel Structures, Incorporated mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.highsteel.com ============================================= -----Original Message----- From: pfpeng [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 12, 2001 11:34 AM To: Lauzus, Frederick Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Hi Fred, I am trying to extract smf path from jof file in one of macro.
