HI,

I have 2 questions regarding my Webfocus email scheduling.

The First file (.fex report) received the following error message when I ran it

(FOC260) AN OPERATION IS MISSING AN ARGUMENT
(FOC009) INCOMPLETE REQUEST STATEMENT
Task error: IBFSException 6000: Error executing procedure: 76a78160_ac7f_457a_91bf_8545a7ffe30d
No report to distribute.

The second file (HTML report).
When i tried to schedule the email method to distribute my report in Webfocus Client, I right clicked this HTML report and I couldnt see "Schedule" option. There is no problem for fex report.

Do you have any idea? thank you

As per the above we can't help without knowing your code, please share.

As per the above, you can't schedule the HTML, it's always a fex. The HTML is normally the interface (GUI) for the user for an interactive purpose, not to schedule.

Does the report work when you run it live? Are there more details in the Scheduler log? Can you create a very simple report and schedule it successfully? Why are you trying to schedule an HTML file? Just wondering what that file does now and how you want it to run on a schedule.

Based on the limited information provided, it seems as though it should have been done as follows:
1) Verify that the fex which generastes the report runs without any futher intervention. If so, change those the fex to -DEFAULTH the variables which are being prompted.
2) Right click on that fex, select schedule / email.
Let ReportCaster do the rest.
