Import Export on different location

tularam

Hi all,

I am using dataport for exporting the data. Here i like to do import and export via same dataport.
But one thing about it is if user selects import then it should import from the predefined location(C:\Import) and
if the user selects export then it should export to the predefined location different than the import location (C:\Export)
Is it possible using only one dataport?

By default, dataports provide the ability to select a file or a destination. The user selects whether it is an import or an export, and based on that selection you then enter a path or browse to a file.

You can use CurrDataport.FILENAME to get or set the filename:

FILENAME (Dataport)
Use this function to return the current setting of the FileName property of a dataport, and to set this property to a new value.

[CurrFileName] := FILENAME([NewFileName])
CurrFileName

Data type: text

The current setting of FileName property.

NewFileName

Data type: text

The new setting of FileName property.

Yes i knew it but want different file location on import and export

Then use it together with CurrDataport.IMPORT to know if someone is importing or exporting.
