is it possible to create a script looking IF the LOCAL file ( i.e. x:\dir\xxx.qwv) is available to execute the binary load or - otherwise - execute the FTP load?

Hi I wrote TWO documents :

- one loads data from a local file ( binary x:\dir\xxx.qwv) when the user is connected to the intranet

- one loads the same data from a binary ftp://user:pwd@ftp.site.com/xxx.qwv when the user id connected via internet

is it possible to create a script looking IF the LOCAL file ( i.e. x:\dir\xxx.qwv) is available to execute the binary load or - otherwise - execute the FTP load?

Hi rav,

Try this:

if filetime('x:\dir\xxx.qvw') then

//local load

else

//ftp load

endif

uhmmmmm since binary load must be first statement of the script this solution doesn't work?
