Defining name of the report or folder to place it

[DvDvDvDv]

Hi all.

I'm exporting a report using directly URL, as you can see on the following example:

http://MyServer/crystal/enterprise/...XPORT&EXPORT_FMT=U2FWORDW:0&promptex-Codigo=2

In this example I'm exporting directly to MS Word.

When the user wants to save it, the default name is always viewrpt.DOC and not the name of my rpt.

Do anyone knows how to define the default name of the exported document ?

Is it posible to define the default folder the file will be saved ?

If someone knows anything about it, please answer me.

Thanks in advance

Dv

Does anyone know an answer for this??

So far as I know, this can not be done as there is not command to set the filename.

Here is a paper on the commands available --

Hi, The user should be able to select 'File..Save As..'
from the WORD menu and choose any name desired...

We are trying to populate this field programatically so they don't have to type anything in...I have researched this and I don't seem to be able to even find any reference of it anywhere on Crystal's site.

isn't this due the url you are calling viewrpt.cwr
why not write a bit of scritp that will schedule the report to be the format you require, then if you want the file saved to a location set the destination to the required location.
this can be done in csp,aspx,vbs and js.
