Terry I just got back from the shop and here's the rundown.
The ignore is checked, and saved, and I even closed Mach and restarted to check again. Same problem. I then went to my macro folder to check the name on the folder and the extension. It reads as follows:
M1299.mls
I tried the program again and once again it skipped the macro and went straight to the M40 line asking for a name for the triplet file.
I have to download from the net and put it on my shop computer by disc. Could this be causing a problem. I always change the read only file when I do that because my home pc creates my cd's as read only. Other than that, I simply downloaded the stuff you sent me, plus the updated gcode files you posted here.
