Hi I'm trying to resolve a problem with my script to save the zip file in the path location listed with the SAVEAS value set on the Hurricane programme when it is run. At present the zip file is being saved in the path location WITHOUT the SAVEAS suffix ie A00.
Script details:
filedia 0 ARX L BINDPTCH ;PERMANENTLY BIND ALL ;XREFS TO DRAWING -XREF BIND * ;PURGE ALL UNUSED PURGE A * N ;PURGE ALL UNUSED PURGE A * N ;PURGE ALL UNUSED PURGE A * N ;SAVE DRAWING QSAVE ;ETRANSMIT DRAWING -ETRANSMIT C ;Enter filename <current name.zip> "G:\0391A\JOBDATA\DUMP\$FILENAME$.ZIP" FILEDIA 1 ;END
Once you click the "CREATE" button, you will see how your compiled script is put together. You will notice that the SAVEAS portion IS updated, but the -ETRANSMIT portion isn't.
If you want to add the A00 suffix to the -ETRANSMIT command, you will need to add it manually to the user script by changing the line to this:
Thank-you for your reply and the solution which works.I have found an number of these extranet facilities require uploading of the project drawings in various formats including the Autocad Etransmit (Zipped package) which allow the project team to access the file types. This modification to the script will save me considerable time.
