Hello all,
Long time listener, first time caller. We're running 4.2 Release and I'm writing a simple User Interface in Visual Basic to allow our operators on the production floor to run our part programs without having the availability to edit/screw them up, but I'm not sure what the code should be that I need to associate the button with, that will open the PC-Dmis application and run a SPECIFIC part program, in PRO mode. There are probably a few different ways to do this. I've looked at the pcdbasic.pdf, but there aren't any code samples for this particular issue and it's a bit confusing anyway. Also, I know that Hexagon sells a Single Touch Interface for about $1700/copy, but we would need 17 licenses, so that's not gonna fly. I tried AllGUI, but apparently it doesn't work with 4.2. Can anyone give me any help with this? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Tim
