Problem:
"Line should start with a Keyword" error when post processing

Solution 1:
The file C:\DENFORD\MACHDATA.INI has an incorrect entry
The line that reads...
MicroRouter (metric)=d:\denford\config\fanucm.ini
should read
MicroRouter (metric)=c:\denford\config\fanucm.ini
NOTE THE DRIVE LETTER !

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Solution 2:
The file C:\DENFORD\CONFIG\FANUCM.INI contains invalid paths in the LIBRARY FILE= entries

Check each entry in this INI file, making sure the LIBRARY FILE= entries contain a complete absolute path, and not a relative path.

An example of an invalid relative path is...
LIBRARY FILE=..\FANUCM.SLB

An example of an valid absolute path is...
LIBRARY FILE=C:\DENFORD\LIBS\FANUCM.SLB

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Solution 3:
Make sure the C:\DENFORD\CONFIG\FANUCM.INI file exists
Make sure the C:\DENFORD\LIBS\FANUCM.SLB file exists


All three of these causes and solutions have been seen out in the field
