    I can guess that the person before you stole the books. This happens with Machine Tool Manuals as well. That is why I always buy my own Books weather CNC Control, or Software. You can't ever count on anything to be where it should be these days. :stickpoke

    Try those sites, you will find what you need and MORE!!!!!

    Let me look around I think I have a book lying around somewhere. But it is a thick one I would personally go with mike's training videos, inexpensive and look like they could get you alot farther ahead than reading a book for a couple of weeks. and these books are defiantly a slow read, especially if you don't know what their trying to explain in advance.
    But if your still interested in the book pm me and I will look for it.
