When I print a report OPTION TXT, it produces this error. When I set up
the text
file setup, it won't create the file.
Midge,
Using the latest updates, as documented in "What's New in Update 81),
if a user attempts to PRINT the report as Text File (OPTION TXT) without
first having defined the Text File Setup in Report Designer, the program
will return an -ERROR- message and not just write a zero length file.
Report Designer | File | Print to Text File Setup ...
Syntax:
PRINT reportname OPTION TXT|FILENAME filename.txt|OPEN ON
Example:
CONNECT ConComp
PRINT ColumnarReport OPTION TXT|FILENAME ColumnarReport.TXT|OPEN ON
The same enhancement applies when printing the report as Text File
using the Print to a File option from the Database Explorer.
Database Explorer|Reports|Run Report|Print Target .. File|Type .. Text File
Hope that explains!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
