Can you save a CSV file on local drive?

Post by rbross »

Hello,

I can export a CSV file and save it under a folder created under AwareIM folder i.e.:

IF FILE_EXISTS('..\Tomcat\webapps\AwareIM\Custom\CSS\WWLM\LINCDocuments\')<>'Yes' THEN
MAKE DIRECTORY '..\Tomcat\webapps\AwareIM\Custom\CSS\WWLM\LINCDocuments\'

How do you save a file on the local drive?
I created a CSV file with contact address fields to be used in a mail merge in WORD, for printing envelopes. ( I have been unable to create a report that will print envelopes in AwareIM)

Is there a way to do this or do you have to have a download feature to download the file?
I'm sure others have the same need to save a file on the local drive at some point!

If you have one local machine that is always the target, an alternative is to use DropBox sync ability:

Clearly not a practical approach if you have a bunch of random users.
