Client wants to know if there is any way to do this... He wants to stop the machine to inspect, reposition or whatever. Right now he is just programming a bogus tool change op - but is there a better way?

Any way to insert a M0 code after a MOp?

Mitch,
If you have 2 or more machining operations (MOps) and you need to insert M0 before the start of 2nd MOp, Right click on the 2nd Mop and select Properties. under comments to output add $M0.
Regenerate and post the MOp.
This would output M0 before the start of 2nd MOp.
Make sure you have comments to output turned on in the post processor.
Note: Adding $ as the prefix under comments to output would ignore the comment start character set in the post processor.
