yes i have been to the almost useless training in irving texas at hexagon metrology given by Colin and told him while in the class that this was not understanding and you see where we are . i was told by colin to come here and ask questions but i see that is a mistake . thank you.

While it's been a few years, I have been to Hexagon's training. Their classes are decent, provided you have some inspection (a lot) background and good computer skills.
They sometimes have to tailor the classes to the lowest skill level in the class and that can hurt. To some degree it is their fault, but also the fault of companies that buy a CMM and think it is a magical measuring machine. I have no problem openly critiquing Hexagon, but not when people expect to put a part on a machine and get numbers. Just ask Brian G., Don Ruggeri, and Josh Carpenter. This forum is merely a supplement to the training. Most of us that post are doing it to assist others, but we can't train you. We have full time jobs.
Go back and read some of the replies in the threads you've started. We (me and others) have asked for some more info (code) in order to help you. Haven't seen it yet.
My suggestion is to call Hexagon's support line. As long as your SMA is current, they can help. Perhaps Colin could help you too.
There are also some forum members that offer one on one training. That might be a good route.
I sent a message to Brian, but it appears he hasn't been on the forum today. He's probably doing his job....

Sorry if I sound like a pompous jerk.
Good luck.
