I am trying to get this to grab data from 1 column & when that is done grab data from another column, then 1 more column.
I do not want to have the data file called out in the rule, I would like it to grab the data from the Data Def Wiz. I am not sure how to change the rule to grab from the fields "FIELD_o", "FIELD_s", "FIELD_a" instead of "newfilename = FusionPro.Composition.inputFileName;" I have tried many different configurations and have not been able to come up with a solution. "The Powers That Be" are pushing pretty hard for this. I know I am in WAY over my head. Jim //newfilename = FusionPro.Composition.inputFileName; newfilename = Field("b_style"); //Field("b_style") orginputfilename = newfilename; var i; // The following line is only needed during validation & preview if(newfilename == "") { newfilename = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\PC #4\\Desktop\\Jim Test\\output test\\pennington\\temp_data_file.txt"; } // Find last backslash in file name & replace with other. partial = newfilename.lastIndexOf("\\"); newfilename = newfilename.substring(0, partial+1) + "tempout.txt"; // The following line is only needed during validation & preview if (orginputfilename=="") { orginputfilename = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\PC #4\\Desktop\\Jim Test\\output test\\pennington\\Test.txt"; } sf = new ExternalDataFile(orginputfilename, "\t"); var of = new File(newfilename); //of.remove(); if (of.open("create") == false) { print("Could not write output file."); } of.close(); if (of.open("write") == false) { print("Could not write output file."); } for (i=0;i<sf.records[0].length;i++) { if (i>0) of.write("\t"); of.write(sf.records[0][i]); } of.write("\r\n"); //of.write("Service Advisor,Start Tag Number,Number of Tags,Service Advisor Picture,Service Advisor Oval Graphic\r\n"); for (i=0;i<sf.records.length;i++) { //startval = Int(sf.GetFieldValue(i, "NUMBERING FROM")); startval = 1; FIELD_o = Int(sf.GetFieldValue(i, "FIELD_o")); //////////////////////////// Added following 2 lines /////////////////////////// FIELD_s = Int(sf.GetFieldValue(i, "FIELD_s")); FIELD_a = Int(sf.GetFieldValue(i, "FIELD_a")); //////////////////////////// FIELD_o ////////////////////////////////////////// for(j=0;j<FIELD_o;j++) { for(k=0;k<sf.records[0].length;k++) { if (sf.records[i][sf.records[0].length-1] != "undefined") { if (k>0) of.write("\t"); switch(sf.records[0][k]) { //case "NUMBERING FROM": //of.write((startval+j)); //break; case "FIELD_o": of.write("1"); break; default: of.write(sf.records[i][k]); } } } of.write("\r\n"); } //////////////////////////// FIELD_s /////////////////////////////////////////// for(j=0;j<FIELD_s;j++) { for(k=0;k<sf.records[0].length;k++) { if (sf.records[i][sf.records[0].length-1] != "undefined") { if (k>0) of.write("\t"); switch(sf.records[0][k]) { //case "NUMBERING FROM": //of.write((startval+j)); //break; case "FIELD_s": of.write("1"); break; default: of.write(sf.records[i][k]); } } } of.write("\r\n"); } //////////////////////////// FIELD_a ////////////////////////////////////////// for(j=0;j<FIELD_a;j++) { for(k=0;k<sf.records[0].length;k++) { if (sf.records[i][sf.records[0].length-1] != "undefined") { if (k>0) of.write("\t"); switch(sf.records[0][k]) { //case "NUMBERING FROM": //of.write((startval+j)); //break; case "FIELD_a": of.write("1"); break; default: of.write(sf.records[i][k]); } } } of.write("\r\n"); } //////////////////////////// End of changes //////////////////////////////////// } of.close(); FusionPro.Composition.inputFileName = newfilename; return sf.records.length; +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- Calling all FP Web Users!
