Yes, you can do this using

's  knowledge base article.

Another route is to work directly with the the .chr, .fet, and .hdr table files. We do this to send the data to QC-Calc, and it can also be imported to Excel.

Prolink QC-Calc

Both are less painful than trying to create a custom report in PiWeb.

I love my QC Calc.

For this, it will depend on what your goals are.  For a single part from a single cmm, then great, use PiWeb.  But if you want to combine data from multiple cmm's then they want you to buy the SBS version.  That turns PiWeb into P$Web real quick.  Or P€Web for my European folks.

I used QC-Calc many years ago when PiWeb didn't exist and I needed to data crunch a lot of CMM data (and I had been previously hand typing it). It was a great solution at the time, but as soon as PiWeb came out, we went that direction and never looked back. QC-Calc pretty quickly got messy with keeping data nice-and-tidy (I remember the big thing was it kept databases together based upon number of characteristics, so it was a mess if you ran via current selection or mini-plans).

This is very true.  They were recently bought by MiniTab.  At first, I was like great, we'll get a bunch of nice MiniTab integrations.  BUT NO.  All they changed was switching from a perpetual license to a subscription model.  Legacy clients like myself are unaffected.  But I don't see any reason to upgrade ever.  I'm sticking to version 4.1 and 4.3 for life.

Hi all,

I have the same problem as Rene.

When I click on the links, a page with "page not found" appears even though I am logged in.

Does anyone here have a reason or a solution to this?

Is there another way to get the linked files?

 

Greetings

Gerry

We use a custom characteristic table created within piweb reports(custom template.) In the piweb report that is generated when the measurement plan has completed we have an action button that allows us to export the table data in excel format by clicking on the button.

It was a fair bit of work on the front end of things, but it is nice in the respect that we can choose when we would like to send the data over to another application rather than having the data export every time a report is generated.
