assigning origin

How can the origin be assigned to a particular location before creating an IGES file? The IGES file i sent to another cad system or bounce back into mechanical desktop seems to be inconsistent/arbitary

IN my experience Iges files have always worked off the WCS. In other words
if you set up the WCS in the original file and do a id of a point, then iges
it in to a new file, that point will be in the same spot.

BTW Whit ... I won't hate you if you bring chilli donuts when you come up
this way
