We recently updated our CMM software from PCDMIS 3.2 to 2012, including DataPage+. On our old DataPage, we were able to select the part data based on what we numbered it in the PCDMIS prompt to upload to DataPage(stats number). In the new version of DataPage+, the only indicator for the part data is the time that is was uploaded, despite PCDMIS still asking you to serialize the part prior to execution. So, my question to you is, is there a way to view that stats number?
That is just SO FLUCKING stupid. (15 years ago) "Hey, we have this all-in-one inspection/stat package, they work hand-in-hand, all ya gotta do is put in this ONE command in your program (with just 2 mouce clicks!) and it will automatically increment your sample number AND save the data so you can make a nice stat report." then now, when everyone needs to lean out their processses "Oh, hey, we're all about making it BETTER and we listen to the users, so here's a new Datapage (which, by the way, you will have to pay for a training class to learn how to use it since it is nothing at all like what you've had in the past and we don't give you anything for the SMA money you've been giving us for 15 years but we changed nothing during that time) and oh, by the way, it doesn't do any of the automatic stuff it did before, now you have to do all this other crap just to get back to where it was before we made it "better" for you."
