Spaces allowed in report filenames?
I am trying to make changes to a program that uses RRWrun.exe. It creates a Control Table (jobcard.dbf) to pass parameters. Currently it passes RI_Report and RI_LIBRARY (among others). e.g.__RI_Report = Area Overview__RI_LIBRARY = f:appsmyprog
eportsmy.rp5____I want to change this so that the report files are in a folder, not in a library. So I eliminated RI_LIBRARY, and changed RI_Report = f:appsmyprogAReportsArea Overview.RRW____The program fails, cannot find "f:appsmyprogAreportsArea.RRW"__[note truncated filename at first space]____1. Why won^t it accept a space in the file name?____2. Is this the correct place to put the path to the report?____Thanks.____

Which version of R&R are you using?__Spaces in report names in RI_REPORT are not a problem in the latest 10.1 release.____Kathleen__R&R Support

==> RE: Spaces allowed
Fixed the problem. It had nothing to do with spaces in filenames.____It turns out the field with of the control file was too small, and thus truncated the filename. It just happened to come at a space, and I jumped to the wrong conclusion.____
