[DOS] Batch file and Send Event

[AnFrusch@pepp]

Hello all,

I've written a simple export and ftp upload procedure which consists of the following steps:

1) FM exports two files in CSV format for n record representing my customers (7 cusotmers = 14 files).

2) as the csv file name is always the same, I use send event and a .bat file which rename the files after FM exports them.

3) through a .bat file I upload all the *.csv files on my FTP space.

These script is very very simple, and it is working when I perform it 'manually' but, when I execute that script as subroutine of another FMscript, I think the batch files are not accessed by filemaker.

Anyone experienced similar problems?

Any idea?

There may be a timing problem

Try adding a few seconds pause right after the export script step

Thank you, I was thinking the same thing.

I will try to do that.

Thank you

Hello,

I tried to add pause everywhere in the script, but nothing is changed!!

The batch files are never accessed by filemaker when I perform the script as a subroutine (when I execute it directly It works fine, the script and .bat files aren't wrong).

Other ideas?
