Help with OLE Automation

Now that I have information in a way that imports and exports the information correctly, I have been tasked with creating an OLE to automatically import the data into the SPC software. I have one that sort of works (as in opens the program, logs in, opens the right collection plan, etc) and I can get put in static information, but I am unsure how to call the information out of PC DMIS to have it be placed in the spots we need in the SPC software being used.

Has anyone else done this? Can anyone explain to me how find the variable and the measurement output in PC DMIS? I am using version 4.2 if that helps any.

Thanks so much.

  • I am questioning something with the plane4 spec that I want to pull out. Now, If I pull it out as a feature and the MEAS_Z command, I get about 1/2 of the whole reading which should be .51. Now this part has a step in it that goes from the bottom to .25. The measurement I get out of PCDMIS is enough to add in that .25 step and come up with that .51 as a whole.

    So my question is, is this a common thing with PCDMIS, or is this dependent on how whoever programmed this part into the system?
