Export to textfile in C/SIDE

Waldo

In http://www.mibuso.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=748&highlight=export+objects it is explained how to export in code to a fob file.

Now, I would like to create a txt file (export an object to text through c/side-code) and no binary fob file. Does somebody know how to do this?

from the object designer, click File/Export. Select TXT as the file type and click OK. Make sure the file extension is .TXT and not .FOB. This exports a Navision object as text.

Yes, that I already knew,

but I would want to create such txt files in CODE. So, how can I write a codeunit to export objects to text-files?

Thanks anyway for taking the time to reply

Oh I'm sorry about that, I guess I should have read the article that you linked to first then huh :shock:

Hi,

I realised it by this:

OnPreDataItem:

OutputFile.CREATE(lrc_ServiceEinr."Exportpfad " + gtx_Filename + '.txt');
OutputFile.TEXTMODE(TRUE);

The variable OutputFile is a "file" and the field "Exportpfad" is a new field in the table "Service Mgt. Setup". Into this field you can type in your path, where the file is to be saved.

And into the OnAfterGetRecord Trigger:

OutputFile.WRITE( your variables );

I hope I understood your problem right. And I hope you understand my confusing description
