I don't know the answer, but the macro uses the shell command to execute the DIR function to create the file list using the following switches. "dir /b /o:-gn". I would first look at the list file the macro creates and see if there are more than 70 files within. If only 70 are there, then you need to look at the operating system. If the file contains a full list of 12,000 files, then you need to look at SmartCAM.

Does anyone know what would be creating the file number limitation and if there is a work around? Running on a P4 with 1 gig DDR memory and 120 gb hardrive with lots of free space. Running Freeform 11.5 The SH3 files are converted to PM4, then the PM4 files are being converted to Catia Iges in a seperate operation. I have 12,000 thousand files to convert.
