    Recently we asked for directions via macro 23 an didnt hear a thing! I called our terminal after we finally found the place, in Dallas in the ice/snow, an was told the macro 23 no longer works an has been taken outta the system.
    Duh hmmm wonder who didnt think the drivers needed to know about this?????

    Has your QC been down for the past two/three weeks? I got a message (part of a Fleet Message) around the middle of January about this over my QC.

    I agree. Around the middle of last month, I actually got several messages concerning the switch.

    For the record, Mac 23, as you have discovered, is disabled and will get you nothing. The new system they want you to use is Mac 12, which will get you Maptuit directions to your next destination only and offers non of the useful information found in Mac 23. If your DM is any kind of a decent person, he/she will probably admit that they have received nothing but bad feedback about the switch. Also, send the Mac 12, then send a message to your DM requesting the "good" directions, which they still have access to.
