TOOL CALL 1 Z S2000 -> TOOL CALL "HM-8" Z S2000

TOOL CALL 1 Z S2000 -> TOOL CALL "HM-8" Z S2000

(OP)
Is this possible with nx?
I'd like convertin the program the tool name, and not the tool number.

RE: TOOL CALL 1 Z S2000 -> TOOL CALL "HM-8" Z S2000

yes use mom_tool_name instead of mom_tool_number and use a variable for the quotes.

RE: TOOL CALL 1 Z S2000 -> TOOL CALL "HM-8" Z S2000

(OP)
i changed in the Tool call line(in the Initial move) , but i got error message, Invalid address expression.
But if i just want to write out like a simple text, than its good. Is there another way, or i must change the all Tool Call line for a "simple text"?

RE: TOOL CALL 1 Z S2000 -> TOOL CALL "HM-8" Z S2000

The quote is a control variable.

set qt {"}

initialize the variable in your user tcl file to get it at the right level.
