Hi Michiel, Ok that may be the case but without allowing the user to specify the filename in a field it is a bit tricky doing a couple of processes on the resultant file and making sure that it is generated as a csv. (The type of file that Remedy generates depends on the extension specified). It is not much trouble doing it as a macro I guess but it does make it a little bit harder to maintain and it won't work too well on web clients. Perhaps this is for the better. Maybe if I could get more control over the way Remedy plain text reports look I wouldn't have to do the extra processing.
