USE-REPORT ReportFile
let $EXT = date_time
let $rptname = $rpt|| '.' ||$EXT

Subject: How do I set dynamic filename


I want make a file name unique for each run. Right now I do
this
OPEN 'C:\PS\Sqr\ERRFILES\PYMST_COMPERR.txt' AS {out}

I would like to change this to
  120398_PYMST_COMPERR.txt  have the date or something
in there so I don't overlay a previous error file.

Thanks
