Just a followup to my original question. Here's the original tool table from 1996, from the WinNT version of EMC at GM/Pontiac Powertrain:

I believe the FMS field had something to do with a GM tool life management system, or asset tracking system. It's not really an essential part of the machine control. Thanks, Matt P.S. I still have all the 1996/1997 WinNT code (source & compiled) for that version of EMC. The GUI is in visual basic! Does anyone want this, or should it be put in a downloadable archive or something? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
