Thanks guys, that's a big help.
The VB codes work just fine. All I need to do is put a SwapAxis macro at the start of the g-code file and a ResetAxisSwap macro at the end of the same file. This is really great as it saves me a lot of time.
If I wanted to add some scaling factor to the rotary axis (after the "SwapAxis(1,3)" line in the macro) what would I add to the macro?
Oh yeah... I have a copy of CNCwrapper but it doesn't like my G-code files. They are generated by CamBam and have lots of G2/G3 movements. CNCwrapper can't handle G2/G3. I also had an issue with CNCwrapper where I couldn't get it to run on my WinXP French PC and needed to run it in a Windows XP English emulator .
