Thanks,but it isn't it.When I push Output CLSF,name of output file is same as name of part with *.cls in the directory of file.
I need to set the output file "C:\data\abc.cl" be there everytime.For all parts.

I find in cam_output.tcl this :

##  When dbc_customize_output_dir is set to 0, a default directory structure will be created and
##  all files will be output to related directory based on clsf, ptp, or shop doc
##  When dbc_customize_output_dir is set to 1, all CAM files will be outputted to the same as part
##  file directory
    set dbc_customize_output_dir 0
## program name
## dbc_output_root_name is set in C function  
    set dbc_program_name [string tolower $dbc_program_name]
    set dbc_output_path $dbc_output_root_name
    append dbc_output_path $dbc_program_name

I can not change it to make it work

RE: How to change output dir

For the customized output to work, you must have LIBRARY_CAM_OUTPUT defined in your configuration. Take a look at cam_library.dat to see an example.

Also read about UGII_CAM_SETUP_ROOT_DIR

This topic has been discussed in the past in the customer forum.
