Francis MarianiFILEDEF on UNIX with expiry date/time
Can a file be created via FILEDEF or UNIX OS command that has an expiry date and/or time?
Thanks.

mgrackinFrancis,
I have never seen an ordinary file under Unix have an expiration date. Can you elaborate more on this question such as what are you trying to accomplish?

Francis MarianiI guess it was wishful thinking.
I was hoping to create a file in a main report that would be used for drill-downs and then in a couple of days would disappear. This is an AIX environment, no ReportCaster, but I imagine there's some kind of a OS-level scheduler that could run a script to delete the file...
Thanks,
Francis
