hi all -

i am trying to display a work file from a lawson job through the portal, but i can not do it using webrpt.exe, since the file path does not exist in the USERRPT table in GEN.  i receive an error that says "invalid file. must be in USERRPT".

is there a (systematic) way that i can add the path name for a work file to the USERRPT table?  will that alone solve the issue?

thanks!

Have you looked into the "loadrptsp" utility?=

Are you trying to view it from the Print Manager ? If so, I think the workfile needs to created as file media PRINTER in workdef

just tried to use loadrpts. it created an entry for me in USERRPTS, but when i try to view the file, i get a message that says "Could not open output Work File". -- ??

i'm not trying to view the report from the print manager, but it would be ok if the file is viewable there. i would like to be able to view the file (CSV file) using a URL in portal.

thanks for your help!
