This is good!
I now can force create the Alias for my export files.
So I can create:
print (SetDirAlias="CAEXPORT","C:\Document and Settings\rlaurin\My Documents\CometExport",2)
We all know that using a Windows domain prevent user data to be created anywhere else than the users' home directory. So that means this above command will work only for my machine when I am logged in.
I tried:
print (SetDirAlias="CAEXPORT","%USERPROFILE%\My Documents\CometExport",2)
This command executes successfully, the Alias created includes the %USERPROFILE% as shown (no substitution). Unfortunately, the path is not corrected when (CopyFile ) is used. As a matter of fact, (CopyFile ) goes thru without a glitch and report SUCCESS!. Only problem is that the file is now in never-never land.
We are stuck with a damn Windoze domain... arrg !
I HATE WINDOWS !!
