Just upgraded a client from 7.6 to 9.1 32-bit (yeah, they waited too long to install and now they're already behind...)
Something works in 7.6 but not in 9.1
SET VAR vcfilename = 'R:\DOCS\POTRAN\91002*.PDF'
SET VAR vcount = (CHKFILE(.vcfilename))
Should return a 1 because there is a file 91002.PDF in that directory. This works in 7.6, but returns a 0 in 9.1. If I change it to:
SET VAR vcfilename = 'R:\DOCS\POTRAN\91002.PDF'
(no wildcard), then it works in 9.1. But I need the wildcard. It appears that 9.1 doesn't recognize the wildcard.
Any thoughts?
Karen
