No it's not the G91 A60 in the second program G0 is active, and for the fun of it I tried puting G0 on the same line.

Ah, yes, so it is. Sorry.
I am stumped, I have to admit.
I think what I would so here would be to modify the code to look like this and see what I see.

I got it to run, but I had to completely pull out any tool call up.
For some reason I can't call a tool T?M6 and use my 4th axis.

That's extremely strange.
If you look at the tool.tbl file in a text editor is there anything wierd going on? (like an offset in the A-axis)

Yes, but, what does the tool.tbl file look like in a text editor? Perhaps it has become corrupted or has "grown" some DOS line-endings or something.
In fact, why not try deleting tool.tbl and creating a new tool file?

I move the tool.tbl to my desk top.
Restarted pc and created a new tool/file
tool 1 poc 1 z-1. dia. 2.0
place T1M6 in program and it still has the same problem.

Are you using hal_manuatoolchange?
Can you check that is isn't hidden underneath the main Axis window?
