Greetings, If you have a representative sample file, I can set up a similar test to what I did earlier – except using a real file – send directly to me of course J

I will have to check on it but unfortunately (or fortunately) it is a monthly process so I won't be able to troubleshoot what they "really" do until the middle of next month. Thanks for your help.

I was able to get the report to execute successfully, with a larger file, it does take some time to complete. Any chance something is closing the instance of BWS while the report is running? Give the support folks a call to investigate further! Regards, Thom Thom C.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2009 11:17 To: Talk Subject: [talkbws] Data Station Report File Hi all, I have a script opens a very large file and updates STAR patient accounts from information in the file. I have it set up to report the status of each record in an Excel file but the spreadsheet is not always generated. From my observation, the larger the input file the less likely the Excel report will generate. Script Functionality: Open file script: D.Open_ F("strTheSourceFile"), ftFixedLength, "C:\Bss70\Scripts\BlahBlah\BlahBlah.bds" Process records: Update the status: D("Status")="DONE" & D("Status")="ERROR" Run the report and close the file: D.Report & D.Close_ End the script Here is what I know: The files are large (8,000 - 10,000 lines +) The Excel file does generate on our smaller test files After a large file runs through the script, I may get 5 - 10 .bds files (*.bds, *.bds1, *.bds2, etc...) My question is... Is it possible to create the spreadsheet earlier in the script and update it periodically rather than wait until the end of the script? Any help would be appreciated but realize that I am a novice and will likely need coaching if the resolution is complicated.
