I am not sure if this has anything to do with it but I noticed an extra +
(maybe to wrap the command)
SET VAR vcommand = +
('Write' & +
'acmeCADconverter.exe' & +
'/r /e /ls /p 1 /f 104 /w 1200 /h 800' & + '/o' & .vdblquote + .vnetworkdrive +
':\' + .vdatafolder + '\PrintQueue\' + .vpdffilename + .vdblquote & +
.vdblquote + .vdestinationfilepath + '\' + .vasfileddwgname + .vdblquote)
If not, then report it to RDCC.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Issue with 9.5 (64) and Writing to a File
Good afternoon,
I'm using the latest build of eXtreme 9.5-64 and I'm having something very
weird happen when I'm writing to a batch file. I'm creating a batch file I can
run with the Launch command to execute an external program and pass it the
necessary parameters. Here is the line that is giving me trouble:
SET VAR vcommand = +
('Write' & +
'acmeCADconverter.exe' & +
'/r /e /ls /p 1 /f 104 /w 1200 /h 800' & + '/o' & .vdblquote + .vnetworkdrive +
':\' + .vdatafolder + '\PrintQueue\' + .vpdffilename + .vdblquote & +
.vdblquote + .vdestinationfilepath + '\' + .vasfileddwgname + .vdblquote)
I have double checked and all variables are defined and correct. My actual line
that gets written to the batch file is this:
acmeCADconverter.exe /r /e /ls /p 1 /f 104 /w 1200 /h 800 /o
"C:\temp\Engineering\PrintQueue\pbuckleyWEB.PDF" "C:\temp\Engineering\FLAT
SERIES\ACTIVE DESIGNS (FLAT) \5000 FLAT SERIES (STEERING MEX) \5637
(TL-300874) (637) \DESIGN DATA\300874 HOLDER A.dwg" Exit
My problem is with the final parameter "C:\temp\Engineering\FLAT SERIES\ACTIVE
DESIGNS (FLAT) \5000 FLAT SERIES (STEERING MEX) \5637
(TL-300874) (637) \DESIGN DATA\300874 HOLDER A.dwg". When this variable,
vdestinationfilepath, is written to the batch file it "adds" spaces before the
\5000, the \5637 and the \DESIGN. I have confirmed the data in the database and
there are no spaces, I've verified the data in the variable before it writes to
the batch file and it is correct.
I hope I'm missing something simple because I just can't find the error. Any
suggestions would be gladly appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul Buckley
