One of my customers "hides" the Comet folder and sub folders by adding a "$" to the end of the share name.
\\PSR_COM2\COMET$\DSK\
This hides the share from Windows Explorer.
Comet.exe and the CFG files are kept in a visible, shared folder called \\psr_com2\CSYS.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hiding folders this way can give Comet users the ability to run programs that Import and Export with CopyFile but keep the windows folders "confidential".
JLPU-1 \\Psr_nts2\Com_Data\COMET Changes\COMET Changes.csv
JLPU-2 \\Psr_com2\DSK$\JLPUDATA.CSV
-1 is the location of the file to be imported with the name the manager gives the file (he's not a Comet user)
-2 is the location and Comet name of the file that is used to update the Job Cost system by a Comet user
Had to set up DSK$ to get CopyFile to work.
Each file can be a maximum of 1MB in length Uploaded files will be purged from the server on a regular basis.
