Defaults

These processing options specify default information for the system to use when it generates the text file.

1. Record Length

Specify the record length of the output file. The maximum length is 1500 characters. If you leave this processing option blank, the system creates the output table with the original record length.

2. Insert Carriage Return

Specify whether the system inserts a hard return at the end of each record. If you leave this processing option blank, the system formats the file into a long string instead of multiple separate records.

3. Default File Path/Name

Specify the default path and the default name for the output file. The path and file name should conform to the file structure and naming standard of the operating system of the computer where the file is stored.

For example, if you store the output file on the local machine C drive, you specify the directory path: C:\FolderName\FileName.txt. If you store the output file to a folder on a network machine, you might specify the network path: \\MachineName\FolderName\FileName.

If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses this path and name: A:\DTALSV.

Note: You should store the files only on a Microsoft Windows client.
