Thanks again, Rod -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter Romain Sent: Friday, 9 November 2007 9:57 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Open Window command - option to export to a given file name Rod, In the Report Information tab, Destination field you can specify the file name as in this example: to-file: $CSVFilePath$/Export $DateAsCharacter$.csv I do this to allow users to specify the path to the file and to give the file a name which includes a date to prevent them over-writing a previous file. On pressing a button they get a file like: c:\prtemp\Export 20071107.csv Cheers Peter > Hi All, > > Does anyone know if 7.0.1 allows the use of a field to specify the name > of the file to use as the destination for an Open Window to report > active link action?
