    NCPlot to DNC

    This is my first post so bare with me. I am over a machine shop in the pipe fitting flange business. I edit all my programs with NCPlot. I was wondering if anyone knew of a DNC program (for uploading NC files to machine controller) that works in Windows 95 or 98. I found one that works with Windows 2000 or XP but all I have is a very old laptop. I would be uploading to Anilam, Fanuc, and Okuma controllers. Thanks for any help!!

    Have you tried the DNC functions in NCPlot? Look on the "DNC" menu.

    I'm using version 1.1 All I see in the file menu is (File, Edit, Format, View, Draw, and Help. Am I missing something somewhere? I'm new to this. I always modified the G-Code programs by hand when I worked at this machine shop 6 years ago. The plant has been closed for 6 years and I am just starting back to work for them. I'm just now learning about all the different software for G Code programming. I will go check out NCplot's website and see what I can figure out. I didn't know they had that capability.
    Thanks
