Add formulas to Reports

I would like to know if anyone has figured out how to add formulas inside of the reports. I would like to be able to use the data in the Tool Summary table with these formulas to figure out Metal Removal rates, etc.

Re: Add formulas to Reports

Hi Eric,

There is no direct ability to do that currently in VERICUT but you can use the macro MSWriteToFile to create a temporary file with a formated text using variables and calculations (same as MessageMacro override text). Then use that file as a subroutine called at end of the NC Program.
Of course the created text file needs to have the correct syntax so that VERICUT recognize the table format and insert it in the report.
The report will have to be created at the end of the simulation.

See corresponding help pages on how to use the MSWriteToFile macro and how to customize the report template to read table from a file.
