EMAILING DAILY CSV FILES

[maxofmillions]

okay i took Exp1 2 and 3 out of the EmailExpressions folder to simplify it a little.....when i pasted it into an inserted expression it reads perfect except for one extra quotation mark on the end....C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Lookout 6.0\2006\aug\22\Nashville Batch Report.csv"

now when i pasted it i was asked to redefine Exp3 and when i did it looks like this in the expression    ..\Exp3

in my expression for my attachment it's just  Exp3   i'm thinking this is making some sort of difference......almost there...thanks...randy

If you move the Expressions out of the EmailExpressions folder (and change the "/" to "\" in Exp2), all you would need is the following:

"C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Lookout 6.0\"&Exp3&"\Nashville Batch Report.csv"

This seems to work for me.

what would i have to do i suppose to Exp 1 and my mailer to make it email the file at say 6 pm every day instead of using a timer....thanks...randy

TimeOfDay can do that.

Do you want something else? TimeOfDay is not enough?
