Hi Niklas

You could try DSO - which is a cost option for BMC. 
Or you could try something like reporting to ARX based on the unique
reference (Entry-ID). I guess it all depends on the target remote system
and what format you need the data. You may even try going down the route
of web-services (XML). 

Regards
Dave

Hi David
Good to hear that I'm not the only one with this problem.

Maybe I should have a look at another transfer method...
Any suggestions that would be as easy as runmacro??
