I stepped again thru the entering setup part. Created the operation. But I am missing something. See my last post re: missing elements.

Thanks for ur suggestion. I will keep digging.

Usually when you don't get any moves in the code it's because you don't have an operation. There are no paths to output. If you have a valid operation, then I'm not sure why your post processor isn't outputting code.
