If your having a problem and need help, there are several thing we need to know in order to help you.

1) What version are you using?
2) What type of geometry? Wireframe(lines & arcs) or Solid model.
3) What did you try to do?
4) What do you want to do?
5) What is it doing/not doing?
6) Are you in Mill or Lathe?

If it's a post problem....
1) What machine type?
2) What control type?
3) Sample of the section of the code that's bad.
4) Sample of what the code should look like.
5) if it's not a standard code, tell us what it does.
Example.
Q: "I cant output a G653".
A: Well what is a G653 suppose to do? Where you output a G653 in the post depends on what it's supposed to do. Is it an indexer code, Clamp code, Coolant code, Special drilling code?

This will help you get an answer quicker. Otherwise we have to go back and forth asking these questions just to find out what you want to do. If you really want help, you'll tell us what we need to know.
