Runtime Viewer Value Needed

[Lisa_P_(Guest)]

I have printed the Table of Viewer Equivalencies from the online documentation. ____My objective is to create a report and export that data as a tab file external from my application using Runtime. I have a runtime database file that I am referencing in my command line. I "think" the field I need is RI_EXPDST?____My problem is I do not seem to understand the values I am entering for the RI_EXPDST. The default value in the online Help says, "Display". I have entered in a complete path and file destination, but I cannot find the output file. I have kept the path lengths 8.3 or less, I^m not sure if it is creating one. When I leave the RI_EXPDST field blank, I can get my report to preview.____Is there any documentation for the this RI_EXPDST Viewer? I cannot find anything but that it is listed in the Viewer Table, it doesn^t list in the online Search. ____Thank you,__Lisa____

RI_EXPDST only applies to excel chart and pivot table exports.____To create a tab delimited file via runtime you first need to open the report in the designer and select Text data tab delimited as your export file type. Then save the report.____In the runtime control file use:__RI_PRINTER=CSV__RI_OUTFILE=c: eportsmyfile.txt______you would enter the appropriate filename in RI_OUTFILE.____Kathleen__R&R Support

Thank you! I^ll get right on it.____I was suspicious that the RI_Printer might be a choice, but I couldn^t seem to find the optional values for that command in the online help other than =D. ____Are the acceptable control file values documented somewhere that I might print off and refer to for future reference? Or is there a manual that is available for purchase containing those values?____Thank you so much,__Lisa
