Is there a way to assign dynamic report name when the report is distributed to an FTP server using Report Caster?
My report is scheduled every month and I want to add Month & Year when it is saved in ftp server.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I am using WF 5.2 on Win 2k.

Thanks,
kj.

Cool Report Caster Supports a file for the distribution list. I would create a procedure that create the distribution list(file). This file needs to be available to the Distribution Server (Report Caster). Then I would schedule this procedure to run some time before the actual procedure so that it has enough time to complete. Then have the actual procedure use this list instead of an internal list.

KJ, I assume you mean the physical file name of the report. I haven't done this, but I think you could simply execute a FILEDEF before creating the report and then in the HOLD command, mention the file name:

-SET &OUT_FILE= 'C:\TEMP\' || 'RPT' || &YEAR || &MONTH;

FILEDEF RPT DISK &OUT_FILE
-RUN

ON TABLE HOLD AS RPT FORMAT HTML
