FILE-NAME

The FILE-NAME terminal in the MaxL language represents a file name or path in Essbase.

If the string contains special characters, it must be enclosed in single or double quotation marks. Double quotation marks allows variable expansion; single quotation marks does not. If the file path contains a backslash ( \ ), it must be preceded with another backslash ( \\ ) to be interpreted correctly by the MaxL Shell.

Type
