Hi,
Probably easy questions, but not finding stuff in the help files.
Using Printnet 6.2.97.0 hotfix
1) When I get to the output screen, I can create different default filename templates which is good. Is there a list of format characters to use (if it is more descriptive than the popup window)?
2) I have input Data files that are typically 01234s_prod, 01234s_samp or 01234s_test. Is there anyway of pulling {prod,samp,test} out of the name to be used in the default filename?
3) One solution to #2 is using an impostion script module (we already have one that seems to add group numbers) but I don't know how to get from an input .dbf name, to a value I can use. ( We get some values out by using a script that assigns to: OutputSheeter_0.SheetInfo.SheetName[3] = GroupCounter.toString();
and I can use %h[3] to get at this value. So figured if I could search input filename for 'prod', 'samp' or 'test' and then fill in SheetName[4] I could probably get the info I need.
(Sorry if that doesn't make sense...)
4) When doing multiple input, is there a way to change the default starting path that it opens to search for the input data files? And is there a way to change the default output path that is given once you pick the data files? (kinda like the formats for the single input file version.)
thanks
