Evening all -

I'm trying to export an XLS file to the current user's desktop using Win system variables.
Based on some google responses, I tried:

SET VAR vExportFileName = ('%UserProfile%\Desktop\' + .vExportFileName)

GATEWAY EXPORT XLS .vExportFileName +
SELECT * FROM TxnHistExceptTmp +
 OPTION COL_NAMES ON|SHOW_PROGRESS

RETURN

vExportFileName = %UserProfile%\Desktop\Exceptions_011211_2111.XLS
But that winds up in places unknown.
I don't believe it's a file name problem, because the file has an XLS extension and works if I hardcode a path.

This is in Win 2K, but also needs to run XP & 7.

Any ideas?
TIA
