## Editing a Part Program: Introduction

PC-DMIS's main purposes are to allow you to create, edit, and execute part programs with ease. This section discusses using the Edit menu (with other menu options) to edit your part programs. While the Edit menu works with the commands that appear in the Edit window, a discussion of the Edit window itself is beyond the scope of this section. For an in-depth look at the Edit window see, the "Using the Edit window" section.
