FPOINTE Command Report
« on: Jan 11, 2018, 18:24:01 PM »
Is there any way to get the fpointe command to export the spool id of a hanger? Or manipulate what it exports?

You could use a script to write or append the spool name to its Number
This would do that
requires Task.Selection

Code: [Select]
DIM i
dim jobitem
Dim Spoolname
Dim Num

for i = 1 to task.selection.count
    jobitem = task.selection[i]
    if jobitem.cid = 838 then
Spoolname = Jobitem.spool
Num = Jobitem.number
Jobitem.number = Num+"-"+Spoolname
ENDIF
next i

Man. I really need to learn how to script. Unfortunately that did not work for me. I am running capmep2017 and fab2017. I see where you are going. If I can change the item number to the spool id then it should report that. I think its the simplest solution. Now I just need to figure out how to get the script to make it happen.

That script may not be working if you have the new hangers. CID#838 is still supported but your hangers may be the newer 1238-1250 number CIDs. If so, you just need to modify the script with the correct CIDs....

Yeah I checked that. It's still 838.
