Ray;

Loaded the new?? version of backplot (bkplot1) and it runs just fine
Thanks for the help and thanks for the effort. EMC is turning out to
be a real nice program thanks to folks like you. The numbers are still
yellow, ie not homed up, but it still works. I will change some of the 
settings in the ini file and see if I can cet that to work. There are
no real home switches hooked up yet.
