problem with automated file capture

[kycom]

I have this script which is run daily and it opens a connection in the connection directory and logs into my pbx and opens a cap file with yyyymmdd format capturing a large list from my pbx but It is creating a temp file and a file with todays date but the file with todays date is 0bytes - the temp file does contain the list i want to capture. I have tried putting the open/close cap file in different places and I have put the proc to create the file with todays date in different places in the script order but just cant seem to see the forest for the trees on this one. I have used pcplus since dos and always thought myself to be pretty good at it but you guys on this site just blow me away!!!! I have a copy of my script below. This forum is the BOMB!!!!Thanks to all!!!!

What you want to do is change set capture file &quot;temp.txt&quot; to point to the file you want the captured data to appear in (either sCapFile or sCapFile2). Actually, it looks like you would want to use sNewFile since the set capture command just sets the name of the capture file and not the location of it (you would use set capture path for this setting). So I would try changing this to read set capture file sNewFile, and you will want to move the line after you have created the name for sNewFile.
