Hi

I need to run a report trough report caster and send the DHTML output to a folder on our in house server so I can be picked up by another process to display it on display screen

I am still using version 764

Never did that before and I would really appreciate some help with this

Thank you in advance

Hi YKK

ReportCAster has the ability to distribute via FTP. So that means your in-house server would need to set up a FTP site that you can distribute the output to.

Regards,

Hi Chuck

thank you for your quick response

Our IT dept will be looking into this ftp server thing

when I get info from them, I will ask more

thank you.

Hi Again

Out IT does not want FTP server, they want to send directly to a shared folder on our network

Is it feasible

Thank you

you can change the fex that reportcaster is running to save the output to a network share using UNC naming conventions.

Hi

Could you please tell me where I can find information on how to do that with wf 7.6 as this is something I never did before and honestly, I have no idea how

Thank you.

Do some searches on this site for Filedef Reportcaster.

Several examples of how to accomplish what you want to do.

There has been times that doing a Filedef did not work.

So I had to do it using operating system commands (CMD, DOS, UNIX, WINNT or ! COPY).

the only tricky part with the filedef is you need to make sure that the ID the webfocus service is running with has access to the network share.

Then it is just a filedef.
