is there any setting to prevent a report launched from runtime from overwriting the destination file if it already exists?____my control file looks like this:__ri_report=j:ezcap3 r ptlibworkingeligibilitycpi reportsElysium eligibility outload.rsw__ri_disperr=T__ri_printer=CSV__ri_outfile=h:eligcpioutload.txt____and if "outload.txt" already exists, i want the thing to bomb out instead of overwriting it like it does now...____thanks for any advise,__ariel

Runtime is designed to automatically overwrite.__You would need to write some program code that checks for the existence of the output file prior to running runtime.____Kathleen__R&R Support
