Chris, The variable #WKPLN is a string. Use #IFSTR instead of #IF. You are also missing the brackets < > around what is to be output if the expression is true.
#IFSTR(#WKPLN=G54)< G68 X#XHOME Y#YHOME R#507> #IFSTR(#WKPLN=G55)< G68 X#XHOME Y#YHOME R#508> ============================================= Fred Lauzus, CAM Programming Coordinator High Steel Structures, Incorporated mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.highsteel.com ============================================= -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 14, 2000 1:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [mfg-smartcam] Posting conditional output Hi all, I'm a little rusty in my post work, and don't have a lot of spare time right now to dig deeper, so I'm hoping for a quick hit answer from the forum. I want to test which workplane is active and output specific code for axis rotation. I've tried a few variations on the following with no luck: #IF(#WKPLN=G54) G68 X#XHOME Y#YHOME R#507 #IF(#WKPLN=G55) G68 X#XHOME Y#YHOME R#508 I get both lines output instead of one or the other needed for the active workplane. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
