PDF with Variable File name

Post by rickwjohnson » Thu Mar 07, 2002 10:36 am

Is there a way to use a calculation or parameter in the file name when using PDF.____I need to run the same report for various branches so I need the file name to be something like "name of Report - br x" with the x being a branch code. I have the branch codes in the database and use them for sorting. Now I need to use them in outputting the report.______Thanks in advance for any assistance. Looking forward to the answer.__Rick Johnson____Rick Johnson

You would need to use runtime and programatically update the value of RI_OUTFILE in your control file/table in order to make this happen.____Kathleen__R&R Support
