Creating a manual inspection check sheet that is separate to report

Hi All,

I am currently programming a highly critical part for my company and because of this id like to create a kind of form or spreadsheet that can be populated with information inside of PCdmis that I don't want on my report.

For instance there are a lot of threads and drill depths on the part than need to be checked manually, my idea is to create a comment at the end of the program asking if this has been performed. this would then save the inspectors name, SN of part, date and time with information of was drill depths / threads checked. As this part is critical and requires 100% inspection.

I'm struggling with the output to a separate form of some kind as I am unsure how to do this as I've never looked into it so I'm hoping someone here has the knowledge of how to perform such a thing.

Hopefully I've explained enough to say what is I want.

Thanks in advance

  • I know you said you don’t want it on the report, but something I do quite often, is to use input comments and generic features. Have an input comment for the operator, like “measure the .500 thread depth and enter the value”. Then use variables to plug those values into the generic features, so not only will they be displayed on the report, but it will output the data as well, for you to use on your dimensional form. Other than that , you could use File I/O to send the data to txt?
