REALIZE is not working! Help!

I am trying to use AutoCAD 2011 and REALIZE (timeguy.com/cradek/autocad) to export gcode for use on a custom CNC machine.

 

To begin with, I created a simple line a bit below the XY plane and ran the program. I put in the safety 0.2 as recommended and exported to the recommended file name (changing H: to C: ).

 

It came back with "Error: bad argument type: streamp nil" What the ____ does this mean?

 

Full report from the command section:

 

REALIZE

Safety Height : REALIZE

Requires numeric distance or two points.

Safety Height :

Output file :

Select objects: 1 found

Select objects:

G54 G80 G90 G94

M02

Error: bad argument type: streamp nil

 

Any help (or triumphant anecdote to let me know that I'm on the right track with this program) would be appreciated.
