OK, having a brain f#r%.

Executing a runmap and overriding runmap input file path + name. Getting input not avail (runmap). Log shows the override as not avail.

run("runmap", " -IF1 '" + GETRESOURCENAME(In1) + "'")

In1 path for cntl map = In1 path for runmap. Am not writing to file, just reading.

I do this kind of thing all the time but for some reason it isn't working now. Any thoughts?

Do you mean to use GETFILENAME(In1) instead? I don't use GETRESOURCENAME so that is the only thing that jumps out at me.

No "GETRESOURCENAME" is correct.

I don't use 'GETFILENAME' because historically the later brings back both path and file name (same as former). I believe the issue with the command may have been fixed but for consistancy we've stuck with GETRESOURCENAME and for path only GETDIRECTORY.

Resolved..... I'm going to fire myself at the end of the day.

Hiring a better coder... When I initially read the rule I didn't catch that it was actually written thus....

run("runmap", " -IF1 '" + SERIESTOTEXT(GETRESOURCENAME(In1)) + "'")

Part of the reason I missed 'SERIESTOTEXT' as the problem was because the run map's log file displayed the path correctly. After I wrote this post I went on to work on a diff project for a bit. About then I realized what the problem was, confirmed it.....

Think I just got frustrated. I'm supposed to be one of our newly trained java developers and I can't seem to get anything to work. Guess I lost my patience.
