I love it. it works awesome. we even go as far adding that file as an attachment to the ticket.

One thing I forgot to warn about is make sure you use >> to append to the existing file. (> will overwrite)

cmd /c echo $bl tmp bl file text$>>"c:\Filename.csv"


Good Luck

Subject: Re: CSV file via workflow

Mike
I create a csv file using Active Link Run Process.  In my example I
create the file then I loop through a table to append values to the
file.

First step -  set a temp field with values needed for column headings
(row 1 in the csv file)
      example: set 'bl tmp bl file text' = "Sequence,Method,RelPath and
FileName,DB_Prefix"


Next - use a run process to create the .csv file (client side)
          example:  cmd /c echo $bl tmp bl file text$>"c:\Filename.csv"
(notice you can pass the above field value to the .csv file)

Finally
I use an al guide and loop a table

      1. : set a temp field with values from the table and commas
             example:  set 'bl tmp bl file text' =  (((($col_bl_segment$
+  ",") + $col_bl_method$) +  ",") + $col_bl_filename$) +  " ,")
+........

    2.  - use a run process to append the existing csv file

          loop the table till there are no more entries


I hope this makes some sense. Feel free to contact me direct if this is
unclear

Hi List.

Do you know if it is possible to generate the .CSV file with the data
from the remedy form using the only remedy workflow (like filters or
escalator).

I know that I can do this using C, java, Perl, etc.
However may be someone has an idea how (automatically) extract data
and store it in the .csv file without using an external application.

Mike
