Defining a default download path for report output in version 4.8

The 4.8 version of MAGIC calls new windows programs when a user enters
DOWNLOAD at the "Print On:" prompt. The windows program opens a window
to the default directory of the workstation software.  To default a user
defined path, enter the following code in an IFE screen attribute of one
of the select prompts (Using option 8 Edit Screen Elements):

IFE="PATH"^MIS.SPOOL.c.filename

An example of opening to the Reports folder on the C drive and writing
to file testdDATE:

IFE="C:\REPORTS\testd"[EMAIL PROTECTED]

The above code will cause the DOWNLOAD option to open to the Reports
folder on the C drive and create a folder with the name testd
concatenated with today's date.  This will allow the user to run the
report daily and not have to supply a different file name since the date
will be different for each run.  Note: if a report is run more than once
a day, you can concatenate the time as well using @.now.

Nancy:

Here is something I had saved about this topic, but it is for FTPing
with the date in the file/title.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
In MAGIC at least, you can do this via FTP and SCHED.  See KB article
19913.

The key is this footnote:

AL START "MYFILENAME.TXT"^/ZFTP.TITLE

This is how NPR knows where to send the info.  (This overwrites the
"MYFILENAME.TXT" file each time.)

AL START "MyFileName"[EMAIL PROTECTED]".txt"^/ZFTP.TITLE

Use this variant if you want distinct files each day.  If you want it to
run
"distinctly" more than once daily, you can change the above to
concatenate
"time".
