[SOLVED] Where can I find the Domains and Folders in basedir?

Can anyone tell me where I can find the domains and the folders within those domains in basedir?

I was working in a domain yesterday and in a folder within that domain. Today, that folder is missing. If I go to F:\ibi\WebFOCUS76\basedir\juliehol\app, I can find the .fex that I was working on. Is there a way to see the domains and the folders listed within those domains somewhere in basedir or somewhere else on my server?

Thanks for your help.

Julie

Folders and sub-folders in MRE are "logical" identities to group and structure your code. They do not refer to physical directories or folders.

There is a folder for each domain and every report code is written in the "app" sub-folder for that domain. For instance, all of the code you write under "juliehol" domain will be found at "..\basedir\juliehol\app".

To access the actual folder/sub-folder structure of the domain as MRE "sees" it, you'll need to open and analyze the "juliehol\juliehol.htm" file. It contains all metadata for your domain but be careful not to alter it or you might render the whole domain useless!!

That was exactly what I was looking for. Once opening the HTML file, I can see all folders within my Domain and the reports withing those folders.

Thank you!
