Autonaming Files Using Remote
An even niftier trick is to autoname the files the same as the NC program number in your CNC memory. For example with a Fanuc, you code may be something like this..

:1256
N10 X1000 Y1000
...
...
...
...
N2000 M30
%

All you need do is set the colon : as the autoname and dump out the file through your CNCs RS232. It gets automatically stored as 1256.

Autonaming now supports multiple files, so you can dump out all the files and ProDNC will split up the data and store them back on the computer as individual files with the same filename as the NC program name. Works great on Fanucs.
