Received error message "Cannot use temporary.rtf, because it already exists."  I got this error when trying to print a Merge File Print. Please Help!

Hello,

The steps below should help you fix this problem.

Close all copies of Word or whatever word processor you use.
Open My Computer
Open your C Drive
Open the Sesame2 folder
You should see a file named temporary.rtf, select that file
Press the Delete key on your keyboard.
Click Yes to confirm delete.
Once it is deleted go back into Sesame and try a Merge File Print again.

If you have any other questions or it gives you any errors, just let me know.

-Ray

If you are executing the command using command button, please put the following code in the begining.
Quote:
if fileExists("c:\sesame2\temporary.rtf")  
     {
           fileDelete("c:\sesame2\temporary.rtf")
     }



This will get rid of temporaty.rtf file if it exists. It also checks every time before executing MergeFilePrint command
