Is this string formatted correctly? c:\@v"env:%procdate%".txt procdate is the system env variable. Also I'm correct in saying I can't file watch using a global variable right? Cheers Lee Wed Jul 02, 2008 9:23 pm SysOp Site Admin Joined: 26 Nov 2006 Posts: 7949 @V is case-sensitive and %% signs around variable name are not needed Code: c:\@V"env:PROCDATE".txt Wed Jul 02, 2008 11:49 pm SysOp Site Admin Joined: 26 Nov 2006 Posts: 7949 In regard to global variable, yes you are correct, global variables can be only referenced in JAL scripts. But... you can always make a script to update an environment variable and that one you can use in a file-watche. Code: Call "kernel32.dll", "SetEnvironmentVariableA", "SS", False, "PROCDATE", GLOBAL.my_var Thu Jul 03, 2008 12:00 am Display posts from previous:  All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year  Oldest FirstNewest First     SoftTree Technologies Forum Index » 24x7 Scheduler, Event Server, Automation Suite All times are GMT - 4 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to:  Select a forum ----------------SQL AssistantDB Audit, DB Mail, DB Tools24x7 Scheduler, Event Server, Automation SuiteTips & Snippets Repository You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum     Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2005 phpBB Group Design by Freestyle XL / Flowers Online.
