Hello. I've been searching the forums, but have not had any luck...

Anyone know of a way to get the Current Date in a ReportCaster Schedule's email subject line, and/or filename -- for a multi-tab document?

I've seen lots of tips for using a burst value, but multi-tab documents don't support bursting.

We're currently limited to InfoAssist, and don't really have access to editing server tables or anything like that.

Thanks.

I believe that this is the documentation, and has been talked about on the forum

It is done by using a amper variable in the title.

Thanks, was able to get it to work on the filename, but can't seem to get it to work in subject or email body using &YYMD or '&YYMD'.

Found this,

but my report unfortunately needs to be multi-tab, which I believe eliminates the bursting option. Probably out of luck on this one..
