Create folder based on parameter value?
In version six I'm able to export the report and have it create the folder to save it in based on the parameter value. As follows: NAME: %pv1% CASE.PDF FOLDER: M:\DATA\10-01-08 PARAMETER VALUE: 10-01-08 In version 7 (also tried 8) I have not been able to make it create the folder that it is to be saved to based on the parameter value. Is this option still available or am I just not setting it correctly. Thanks in advance. This is what I have listed on the export directory for 7. It exports fine once I go and create the folder manually, but not unitl then. M:\Data\10-01-08\ summary.pdf This is the last entry in the process log: 10/22/08 2:59:00 PM Messasge: Invalid directory.

This feature was probably lost in translation. I will see about adding it back in.

Thanks, it would save me the time of having to make all of the folders myself for each parameter value. It was much easier to have them made when exporting.
