I thought this would be nice for the first thread here. Any PCDMIS part program I have that saves stats I put this at the begining of. It looks for and deletes the xstats11.tmp file when executed. This avoids the way of doing it manually which is usually right after things screw up.
Yes I force an update after every inspection routine. I'd hate the thought of loosing 30+ pieces like you said. Not updating after each routine is like Russian Roulette. You might be fine but I am certainly not going to take a chance on it. I update it without the message box that asks if it is ok to update, again this goes back to my attitude of having the operator do it. My situation is not the same as yours. Here the CMMs are on the shop floor and the machinists load their parts and run them.

I figured as much. I can see why it is optional to update or not, but no way will I not update after I check a part. It is optional so that those with lower scruples can NOT send bad data to Datapage and can 'replace' the part with one that checks good and send that instead. No need then to go into Datapage and delete out a transaction, jst keep it from going in to it in the first place.
