[SOLVED] How 2 send different value than burst value in subject line of distribution?

Hi all,

So, I've got a schedule with 2 tasks that run a report each with the same burst value tacked onto the file attached in the emails distributed via a dynamic distribution list we've created.

In the distribution, is there are way to assign a value into the emails' subject lines that are different than the burst values used in the reports?

Example: Reports are using a customer # for the burst value, but the recipients would like to see the store name associated with each burst value in the Subject Line of the emails they receive.

Is this a doable thing somehow? And if so, how can I accomplish such? Any ideas?

Do note: For every distinct burst value, there is a matching distinct store name value. So, that is taken care of.

Thanks in advance!

CG,
Concatenate the STORE_NUMBER || STORE_NAME as your sort and burst values...
