If I have three companies in GP (CMP1-CMP3) the line in my dex.ini would still be, for example, OLEPath=\\ServerName\GPShare\OLE\. For this path to work with the three companies, you would need to manually add the following directories under the OLE directory on the share.<BR/><BR/>CMP1\OLENotes<BR/>CMP2\OLENotes<BR/>CMP3\OLENotes<BR/><BR/>When using a local drive or a mapped drive instead of UNC for the OLEPath, this directory structure is created for you by GP.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>MattUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05621187221320630751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902800390575811159.post-15389471813903795172009-02-09T11:02:00.000-06:002009-02-09T11:02:00.000-06:00Matthew,Thanks for the info - I'll have to try it....Matthew,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the info - I'll have to try it. If you have more than one company, how would it look in the .ini file? <BR/><BR/>I didn't think you could have multiple OLEPath= lines. I must be missing something here. Please expand so I can modify my list.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!<BR/><BR/>LeslieDynamics Confessorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06555435567985477366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902800390575811159.post-42733227355243409852009-01-30T18:35:00.000-06:002009-01-30T18:35:00.000-06:00Actually you can use UNC paths with the OLEPath sw...Actually you can use UNC paths with the OLEPath switch. The trick is to create the full shared directory structure first. <BR/><BR/>Most shared directories for OLE Notes that I have seen look something this - C:\GPShare\OLE. When you set the OLEPath=\\ServerName\GPShare\OLE\ in the dex.ini, it will not work since the required subdirectory structure under OLE is not created. You would need to create the Company ID folder and then the OLENotes folder within the Company ID folder get it to work correctly. For example, using "The World Online", the correct structure in the share would be C:\GPShare\OLE\TWO\OLENotes. This directory structure would need to be repeated for each company in GP, for example, C:\GPShare\OLE\CMP1\OLENotes.<BR/><BR/>Make sure that when you add the UNC path for OLEPath in the dex.ini you have the slash (\) at the end of the path statement.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05621187221320630751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2902800390575811159.post-34734769293112901052009-01-02T22:38:00.000-06:002009-01-02T22:38:00.000-06:00This was great, especially your comments!
