Are you running the latest version?

I know there were some issues with earlier versions.

If you are talking about QuickCAM 2D Design, then

If the outside edge of the tool goes outside the billet, it will generate a warning. This is because you may be using edge clamps that would be machined in to :(

It is just a warning though - and the CNC program will still be posted out - look for untitled.fnc, or the "name of the QuickCAM project".fnc in My Documents\Denford\CNC Files
