Reverting actuals back to cad model

Hello all,

i have a question, the engineering department all the sudden wants me to check their cad models for them. The easiest way i have found is to write a program (which i would have to do anyways) offline to the model in cad. Then i of course print the report and viola! There is the dimensions of their cad model.

My problem is, they also want the checks to be done on older models that i have already programmed and ran actual parts online. How can i get the report to show the actuals that the cad model has, and not the actuals from the last part i checked.

Thanx in advance

thanks for the tips guys... i will try the "show path lines" thing and see if it works. I miss spoke when i said that i ran the program "offline" I actually dont have that option. what i meant was that i programed it, created the dimensions and reported them.. all before i actually run the program on the part. I can't go offline...

Oh, btw, any program that you open after the first (on-line) automatically opens in offline mode.

Do you not see this ability?
