    Are you using a tool library or tool numbers?? Most post processors won't post in a tool library format.

    Cheers

    I have spent a good few hours going through lots of settings in the post processor using code wizard in edgecam and NOW I think I have a working format.
    the tools are recognised as numbers though as you rightly say 'scurr'
    Thanks for the reply. :-)
