Thanks for the help Superman.
What file format do you have best success bringing in as solid. I succeeded with .sat, but when I follow the create surfaces routine, I get surfaces, but they are apparently overlain on the solid as I get the psychadelic 2 color depiction of part.
Problem #2- this happens to me often, and sometimes I get it to go away without knowing exactly what I did- when using surface rough pocket routine, I select drive surfaces, and the outer containment boundary (inside as you suggest), but when generating operation I get error message(s)- "No cut found-check tool, cut dpths, or use tool containment boundary". Followed by "unable to determine a valid machining zone- no tool path created". Followed by "error regenerating operation! surface rough pocket"
Thanks again,
