How to create new NX GRIP vocabulary word?
 
Better explaination is needed.

GRIP is not being enhanced or developed since NX3 with the changes to plotting. It is considered an out-dated module. Siemens will try to keep the code from breaking in new releases of NX but will not do anything to make it work if it does break.

If I remember correctly, you would need to make a 'subprogram' and link it with every program that made use of it.

Thanks
Whether the 'subprogram' is in GRIP or in other language?
 
The subprogram would be in GRIP. I believe there was a way to execute other code (external programs) with GRIP, but I don't remember the details.

is XSPAWN what you're referring to ?

NX 9.0.3.4
NX 10 (Testing)
Windows 7 64 (Windows 8.1 Tablet)
 
Typically, where in this case "Ufprog" is a String Variable...

Xspawn/ Ufun,Ufprog,Iferr,Err00:

NX 9.0.3.4
NX 10 (Testing)
Windows 7 64 (Windows 8.1 Tablet)
 
You could CALL a subprogram written in GRIP. You could use XSPAWN to launch a program or command in another language. XSPAWN also had a concurrent or pause mode of the main program.
I have used XSPAWN to chmod file protection on a file written to the OS by my GRIP program.
