RTC (NAV 2009 R2) - XMLPort Export to client machine instead of server

halcyon1234 · 2016-06-17

I have a codeunit that runs an XMLPort (EXPORT). It uses the same code that I'm sure we've all copy/pasted many times (see below).

The problem is that if I open the RTC on my local PC, and run the codeunit, the file is saved on the Navision server.

The weird thing is, if I open the Classic and run the EXACT SAME codeunit, it saves it local to my PC.

Is there a way of making the RTC save the output on my local PC instead of the server?

varXmlFile.CREATE(FilePath+'\xmlout.xml')
varXmlFile.CREATEOUTSTREAM(varOutputStream);
XMLPORT.EXPORT(XMLPORT::"The XMLPort I Am Running", varOutputStream);
varXmlFile.CLOSE;

Hi,

This is not weird, this is 3 tier ...

We use codeunit 419 to get a xmlfile to the client.

    lFilename := 'SomeRecords.xml';
    lServerFilename := lFileMgt.ServerTempFileName('xml');
    XMLFile.CREATE(lServerFilename);
    XMLFile.CREATEOUTSTREAM(lOutstrXML);
    XMLPORT.EXPORT(XMLPORT::"Export Some Lines",  lOutstrXML, lrecSomeRecord);
    XMLFile.CLOSE;
    lFileMgt.DownloadToFile(lServerFilename, lFilename);

Good luck.
