I ended up doing the following. Brian attached is an extracta command file that will extract specific holesizes. You will have to modify the values to meet your needs. lines with # are comment lines and may be uncommented if you want to extract that info also. To use this runn the following command at a shell/dos promptextracta <boardname> dr35-40 <outfile> the output is raw data and you will have to format yourself. There is no way to sort such that all the same holes sizes appear together in the output. Of course you can do them one at a time without using the OR statement in the attahed file. -----Original Message----- From: Tony Stanislao [mailto:stanislao_t@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, June 15, 2004 2:49 PM To: icu-pcb-forum@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Re: Trying to find a specific drill size Mike, What does this NC_TOOLS.TXT format look like. Do you have a sample file? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a double hit on a via might want to check your via-via DRC's to see if you have two vias at the same spot.

How can I get the X,Y coordinates for that drill size Brian
