TP,
Thanks for the response.
I will look into the Value Box idea. I would much rather just type in the serial each time then going in and changing the leading value of a DRO. My goal is to set it up so any operator can go over and throw a part on the machine and hit go. Having them manually change the DRO leading zero value would be not the ideal production environment.
So just so I am clear, in my macro, would the value box go right at the beginning of the VB code?
My VB code skills are very limited, I can edit most code, but not write fresh.
Thank you,
Mike in MN
