Ahhhh, Geopak. Those were the days. PL CR CS PN KI LN PP and all that good jibe.
RB, to do what you want, you would at least need to build a generic program that could be used over and over again. Many will tell you your methodology isn't good, but it sounds like you're using the CMM as bore gauge only in these cases. Build a program that starts with a readpoint, which will give you your center and depth. I think you need to assign variables to obtain the X Y and Z values. You can setup a comment to input the diameter. Now create an auto-circle with the X Y Z variables and diameter input. Make sure your autocircle has sample hits turned off and no depth set. Before Dimensioning the value, you may need a couple more input comments to collect the tolerance if you care to. You should be able to rerun that program anytime you need a diameter reading quickly. You can even loop it with a comment at the end of the loop (inside the loop) to pause the machine while you move to a new part.
